Hi John,
Before we dive in, I just wanted to thank all of our listeners for helping to make our podcast "New & Noteworthy" on Apple podcasts! The movement is trending because you're tuning in -- so, thanks!
Now: Imagine for a second that you've decided to run for office: You put together an incredible team of friends, family, and activists; spent precious time and money; made it all the way to election day; and when the vote tally was finalized --
you're short six damn votes.
This is
Marché Johnson's story, and you can listen to it right now in our newest podcast episode.
Marché is a Democrat running in Alabama, something you don't hear about often -- but we're hoping to change that! She's a veteran and single mom running for Montgomery City Council after she first ran in 2019 and lost by just six votes.
Then the incumbent who beat her died in office -- often the only way space is made for new leaders, unfortunately -- and now she's fighting again in a
wide-open race.
This time, she's not going to lose. How will she flip the script? Listen to today's episode on the podcatcher of your choice to find out! >>>
Thanks,
Amanda Litman
