Due to the recent death of my mother after two years of fighting cancer, and fears and concerns about a couple of other major health issues in my immediate family, I am putting my active campaign into suspension. My family and I need time to heal, recuperate, and recover from these troubles, and I need to be with them to give them my support.

I’m still considering whether or not to have a “passive” campaign where I just do what’s necessary to get on the ballot and perhaps make a few more posts on my site here, but I will definitely not be canvassing in the next year or so.
