Woodard: he's not going out like that
Democrat Greg Woodard e-mailed us today to say that he's not bowing out of the District 8 race for the Guilford County Board of Commissioners against incumbent Melvin "Skip" Alston.
Woodard, who has been sick, added that he's getting healthier every day, and that over the weekend many people called his home to offer help on his campaign. He has to limit his phone calls to less than three minutes, but welcomes e-mails with questions about his campaign.
From his e-mail:
After all, everyone gets sick. I just got sick at a bad time. I'll be back on my feet in no time and if I win, I'll be well healed long before I am sworn in.
You may want to note, I have 23 yrs. of decorated service in the Military and have been very active in the community, I don't go down that easy.
Here's his blog, which has some more on his health and details of his candidacy.
No matter the outcome of the race, we hope Woodard recovers soon. Primary Day is May 6.
