Thank you, Renton!
I am so honored and humbled to be elected to serve our community.
Thank You to...
You. Whether you walked the neighborhoods with me, contacted your friends, wore a sticker, hosted a yard sign, sign-waved, wrote Letters to the Editor, hosted an event, or performed a variety of other tasks, YOU made the difference.
Barbara Chadwick, my Campaign Consultant. If you want to run for office and win, hire Barbara Chadwick! Thank you for your deep political knowledge, keen intuition and fierce loyalty.
Martha Zwicker, my Field Coordinator. Your hard work and dedication were key in this win, and your friendship and support was equally essential. Thank you.
Michael O’Halloran, my Treasurer. You were awesome, and I appreciate your dedication to this important (and sometimes thankless) role.
Kevin Poole, my wonderful Webmaster, who also created my logo and direct mail pieces. I am very fortunate to have someone so talented as one of my closest friends.
Rich Zwicker & Ray Giometti – My sign dream team! Thank you for ensuring I had the best coverage and that my signs were rigorously maintained. And, thank you for getting them down so quickly after the race!
My campaign strategy team – Susan & Don Bressler, Cherish Hart, Stefanie & Ryan McIrvin, Bryce Miller, Valerie & Michael O’Halloran, Kevin Poole, Martha & Rich Zwicker. These people donated hundreds of hours of time and expertise to help achieve the win. Thank you for the impromptu strategy sessions at Casa De Prince, and for basically giving up your summer for the campaign. Thank you for standing strong with me.
My amazing volunteers! The wonderful people who doorbelled, who sign-waved, built signs, who did whatever our team asked whether the task was great or small. You made this victory happen.
Union and organization support! Thank you to the Renton Firefighters Local 864, City of Renton Employees AFSCME Local 2170, Renton Chamber of Commerce, NARAL Pro Choice Washington, Washington Conservation Voters, Seattle-King County Realtors, Affordable Housing Council, Amalgamated Transit Union Local 587, Martin Luther King County Labor Council, UA Local 32 Plumbers and Pipefitters, Teamsters Joint Council 28, Teamsters Local 763, International Union of Operating Engineers Local 286, and SEIU Healthcare 775 NW for their endorsements and tremendous support.
King Parker and the other elected officials who supported me with their endorsements and with their advice.
My family. Meegan, Alex and the rest of my family both local and across the country. Your unwavering love and support has made me the man I am today, and the elected official I am about to become.
Thank you again for all your support, encouragement, and commitment to my campaign. I look forward to serving Renton with the same enthusiasm and dedication you all showed during this race.
With gratitude,
Ed Prince
City Councilmember-elect, Renton City Council
