I went to a meeting at the Dem HQ tonite and they expressed admiration 
for the folks at AWARE and all that you did for the campaign. Would you 
please forward my message on to the peace list?

As quoted in the News-Gazette Wednesday February 28:
Williams was thrilled to take the sixth and final spot. She said her 
campaign will be based on representing "the common person."

"Power to the people," she said.
