A primary thank you

Thank you, citizens of Oshkosh, for your vote of confidence in the primary election! It has been an honor for me to serve on your Common Council, and I appreciate your continued support. I also thank Kent Monte. We did not always agree on the issues, but I appreciate his willingness to run for council.

Bryan Bain (i) - 2,846 (22.23%)

Meredith Scheuermann (i) - 2,021 (15.78%)

The general election is only six weeks away, and I do not take the primary results for granted. From now until April 3rd, I will continue to serve as one of your current council members, talk and listen to citizens, attend meetings and canvass neighborhoods knocking on doors to keep the momentum going, but I need your help! As I have said along, we can work together toward a strong, proud future, so I again ask you to join me in creating a shared vision for the city of Oshkosh.

For more information about the campaign, to request a yard sign, volunteer, endorse my candidacy or make a financial contribution, please visit my website or email me. And be sure to remind your family, friends, neighbors, co-workers and yourself to vote Bain for Council on Tuesday, April 3rd!

Thank you again, Oshkosh!
