Dear friends and neighbors,
I feel the need to inform you that due to some issues with the exact location of my address, the elections office initially placed me in District 50. However, I fall in District 45. After taking an appropriate amount of time to correct the proper paperwork, I have shifted my campaign to a write-in candidacy for District 45.
I do realize this makes my run a bit more complicated, but I started this campaign with the goal of making West Virginia a better place. That's putting an end to the corruption, to make it mandatory for transparency, to give local autonomy so you all have a choice and we can make our own decisions, to clean up our neighborhoods, and give us all a chance to actually find somewhere to live that we can afford, and not something that's falling apart, and give our young people a reason to stay home.
I have not given up on this campaign, nor any future campaign that I do prospect, and I have not given up on you, nor the state. No matter what, come November 3rd, I will be there. And if you fall in District 45, you may go to the old bank, or wherever your polling place is, and write my name down, Christopher Ratliff.
I am here for you, the people of District 45, and the people of District 50, and the rest of the state, because I have not forgotten about any of us. I don't want to be a placeholder. I don't want to be here for just a part-time job. I want to be here to pour my heart and my soul out for you all, and with every fiber of my being, do what I can for you.
Help me, help us, West Virginia.
Vote Christopher Ratliff, District 45, House of Delegates write-in candidate.
