Meet Patty Bradway
A Big Thank You
Before making the decision to run for the Minnesota House of Representatives in our district here in White Bear Lake/Vadnais Heights, I prayed a lot. This was not something I planned to do, but something I was called to do.
Over the years I volunteered for other candidate’s campaigns, dropped literature, knocked on doors, and placed hundreds of yard signs. Knowing the personal time and sacrifice it takes to perform these tasks makes me extremely thankful to all the wonderful volunteers who helped with my campaign these past nine months. For those who walked in our parades this summer, and covered the neighborhood streets with me, those who engaged voters at the doors and held meet and greets for me, please know how much I appreciate you and your time dedicated to my run for the MN House.
To my campaign co-managers, my social engagement team, my door knocking coordinator (and spiritual support angel), my expert advisor, amazing graphic designer and photographers, yard sign installers, stalwart door knockers, and anyone who participated in my campaign, you have my utmost thanks and gratitude.
To the many wonderful donors to my campaign, your support has been amazing, and I am humbled. And for everyone I have met at the door thank you for your time, your insight, and your frankness! I learned and grew from our interactions. Whatever the outcome may be next Tuesday, I am blessed to have had the opportunity to spend this election cycle in your company. Thank you, Patty Bradway
