Hi John,

 

Congratulations to the atheist and humanist candidates who won their 2019 elections.

 

- Andrew Zwicker, an atheist, won re-election to the New Jersey General Assembly in District 16.

 

- Karl Frisch, an agnostic, won a seat on the Fairfax County (VA) School Board - Providence District. 

 

- Bob Scott, a humanist, won re-election as Mayor of Franklin (NC). 

 

- Jason Kasuncik, a humanist, won re-election to the City of Eastlake (OH) Council. 

 

- Danny Choriki, a humanist, won a seat on the Billings (MT) City Council - Ward 3.

 

You can see our list of nontheist elected officials here. Thanks to all of our 2019 endorsed candidates who helped build the visibility of the nontheist community and diminish the stigma against us. For the 2020 elections, we have already endorsed 25 candidates.

 

Because of our work, more and more candidates and elected officials are now comfortable identifying as humanists, atheists, and agnostics (see our polling results from 2018 and our secular candidates guide). Help us continue our important work by making a generous donation to the Freethought Equality Fund.

 

 

 

Sincerely,

Ron Millar

PAC Coordinator
