In the waning hours of true campaigning time, I want to make a final remark.

The central conversation of this election has been “Does any of this even matter?”

Yes.

Your participation matters.
Your vote matters.
You matter.

This club can only continue to exist so long as we are here. No matter who you vote for, I hope you do vote. I hope you apply for every open position you see, whether you think you stand a chance of getting it or not. Speak up, speak your mind. Please participate. It’s not easy, it’s scary sometimes. But it is always valuable.

Thank you for reading this. If you submitted a question, thank you for that. If you vote, thank you.

If I get one vote, I have gone farther than I ever could have anticipated when I signed up as a Cadet.
