Dear Friends and Neighbors,

Thank you for your support on May 21st during the Primary Election. My entire family is so very humbled and grateful for your support and for giving me the opportunity to represent you in the General Election. 

I would like to extend my appreciation to all the voters in Norristown's 3rd District who took the time to come out to exercise their right to vote, and most importantly, I am grateful for all those who took the time to write in my name.  

In addition, I extend my gratitude to my "Norristown" poll workers; (in alpha order) Al Ciancuilli, Jeanette Culbreath, Rochelle Culbreath, David Hodo, Joe Niedzielski, Greg Scott, and Doris Smith-Starks - who worked the polls on one of the hottest and most humid days of the year. My sincere appreciation is also extended to the following 3rd District residents who distributed my palm cards (also in alpha order); Kim Adams, Joe DeDominic, Linda Lowery, Betty Ann McPherson, Joanne Niedzielski, Pat Prince, Ray Ragland and Sandra Travis.  Last, but not least; thank you Buck Jones  CBN (Citizens for a Better Norristown), and Local 135 PAC! 

I would also like to congratulate all the other candidates who are moving on to the general election. Running for public office can be a stressful experience, especially when you know your competitors are not only outspending you, but also distorting facts.  I look forward to a lively and engaging race that will allow Norristown citizens to carefully choose who will be their next representatives on Norristown Municipal Council.

To my 3rd District Constituents - I promise I will do my best to be your consistent voice on Norristown Council.  I will study the issues.  I will listen to you.  I will ask for your input.

In closing, I am very grateful for the opportunity to earn your trust, your vote, and to be your voice on Norristown Municipal Council.

Sincerely,

Linda Christian
