Happy Holidays

 

Happy Holidays from The Austerlitz Republican Committee!

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your families!

A disappointing finish to the 2012 election, after the count of Absentee Ballots, Judge William “Bill” Hogencamp lost his race for Town Judge. Bill worked a great campaign with honor, integrity and pride. We wish Bill lost of success in the future. Keep checking our facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Austerlitz-Republicans/130244128113 or stopping back here for the final results as we get them from Board of Elections. Hopefully by tomorrow. Please share your thoughts on this election. We really need to up our game and need your input to achieve success in the future. When you consider the time and effort that Bill spent on this election and still lost, it proves that we need to up our ante. It only takes a few minutes, and it is valuable information that is used for further elections. Once you complete the survey you can forward it to a friend for their participation as well. Here is the link to the survey http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/2NGS7TB . Thank you, for your help!
