During the campaign, Councilman Anselmo Millan asked me to write a descriptive piece for the campaign website. I wrote the following.  I tried to convey in the video the same message.

Anselmo Millan and his wife Josefa have been residents of Harrison for 39 years.  Together, Anselmo and Josefa raised two children—Josie and Anselmo Jr.  Now, Anselmo and Josefa are enjoying the blessing of grandchildren.

Anselmo has never forgotten the importance of public service.  With Harrison facing ever-increasing financial challenges, Anselmo decided to seek the council seat in the 2^nd Ward, so that he could lend a hand in helping Harrison’s residents.  Anselmo brings with him over 10 years of council experience.  If elected, Anselmo will hit the ground running to help the residents weather the economic storm currently hitting Harrison.  With life and council experience coupled with boundless energy, Anselmo is uniquely qualified to help lead Harrison through these trying times.

Ask yourself, do we want someone who simply complains?  Or, do we want someone who looks for solutions to the problems facing the Town of Harrison?  Anselmo has been finding solutions for years.  Anselmo’s work ethic is well-known.  Whether he is heading up a volunteer group of high school students, Harrison’s Beautification Committee, Harrison Fest activities, or meeting the needs of constituents, Anselmo gives his heart and soul.  Anselmo draws strength from the simple pleasure of helping someone in need.  Anselmo is Ready and Willing to Serve!  That is not only a campaign slogan, but reality.
