My embarrassed reply to you and the list, Actually I have been following your campaign (Farheen Hakeem's, spelled correctly) since getting one of your flyers at the Loring Park anti-war rally in February, so I should know how to spell your name correctly.
I think I have learned now not to try to post anything the day after being an election judge from 6 am to 9 pm, then staying up until 2 am to look at election results nationwide. I obviously was not proofreading my posts for spelling, and I failed to add my name and neighborhood. I'm giving myself plenty recovery time after the 2006 primary before sending out e-mails.

Obviously, you did not write me in. BTW, if I did receive 1,000 votes, I would like to thank the Star Tribune for sponsoring a write in campaign. The Strib decided to change the title of an editorial that was "RT sucks less" to "Write me in, not clueless candidates" which was published September 24th of this year. Other journalists read the title and thought it was acurate as well. > > For someone who did absolutely no campaigning after September 13th, and still get a portion of 1268 votes, shows something quite extraordinary. The people of Minneapolis are some of the most loving people in the world. Thank you for giving me an opportunity to run. > > Farheen Hakeem > > PS.
