While I'm disappointed in the outcome of my campaign for State Controller, there are a number of bright spots from the campaign. I had the opportunity to get to know wonderful Nevadans statewide, and I will cherish conversations we had on ways the State Controller can help move Nevada forward. I'm also delighted that the "Furry Friends League for Ellen" campaign ad we created was nominated for an award by the Society of Voice Arts and Sciences.
Separately, on election night, I achieved a goal that I've had for over a decade. That goal was to change the way Henderson city council members are elected, so that council members are elected by their own ward's voters. In 2019, I got a law passed that put the question on this year's ballot, with the provision that if the voters agree, the city charter would be changed immediately. Support has been overwhelming, with the ballot question passing with two-thirds of the voters voting for it.
It's been a wonderful journey so far, and I appreciate your help and support. I'll keep you posted
Best,
Ellen
