On Monday, September 20th, an audience gathered in the Kenan Recital Hall at Peace College to listen to women candidates share their experiences about running for office, difficulties encountered because of their gender, and their visions for putting North Carolina back on the right track. The forum was made possible through a partnership with Peace College, the NC Center for Women in Public Service, and the Junior League of Raleigh.

The panel of women included: State Representative Deborah Ross (D-37), County Commissioner Lindy Brown (D-District 2), Representative Jennifer Weiss (D-35), Soil & Water Conservation District Board of Supervisors candidate Jenna Wadsworth (that's me!), NC House candidate Violet Rhinehart (D-40), Representative Marilyn Avila (R-40), Representative Rosa Gill (D-33), & NC Senate candidate Stephanie Watson (L-16).

Quick Hits:

• Bill Ferguson is a 27-year-old Davidson Graduate running for the Maryland State Senate (District 46). He recently won the endorsement of the Baltimore Sun and faces his primary election today. He is a Teach for America veteran and well-versed in education policy. He's been doing some serious fundraising, and has a real chance in this election. Maryland voters are looking for a change, and we wish the best of luck to Bill!
• Patsy Keever beat Bruce Goforth in the May primary, and gets sworn in to fill out the remainder of his term tomorrow. She's also been showing us the love on twitter!
• Jenna Wadsworth also had nice things to say on Facebook: "proud to receive the endorsement of the Grassroots Farm Team!"
• This week, the Grassroots Farm Team goes to New York to film a campaign video that we'll be using for our MarshallBomb. Go Elaine Go!

"the finest line of poetry ever uttered in the history of this whole damn country was said by Canada Bill Jones in 1853, in Baton Rouge, while he was being robbed blind in a crooked game of faro. George Devol, who was, like Canada Bill, not a man who was averse to fleecing the odd sucker, drew Bill aside and asked him if he couldn't see that the game was crooked. And Canada Bill sighed, and shrugged his shoulders, and said 'I know. But it's the only game in town.' And he went back to the game."
