Happy Election Day! The Duggars are on the edge of their seats this year because their very own John-David is running for Alderman! His ambition is to make a difference, and to those who say that he is too young, John says that everyone has to start somewhere.
What does John hope to accomplish if he is elected Alderman of Tontitown, Arkansas?
"If the economy is hurting, all the people are hurting," says John Duggar, "That's when the city should look at areas they can cut."
What is John's message to the people?
"Just get out and vote."
And if you live in Tontitown, John would be honored to have your vote.

What in the world is an Alderman??!?! We don't have those in Florida.
ReplyDeleteNonetheless, I'd vote for John-David if I could.
That was my reaction exactly, Elizabeth! I found out that "Alderman" is another name for a city council member. Some cities call them "aldermen," but others call them "councilmen" or "council members."
ReplyDeleteI can't seem to find election results for his race. Can you tell us if he wins?
ReplyDeleteI will announce the results when I find out, which should be tomorrow.

I too enjoyed this site. I am a big fan of the Duggars and was so interested in finding out if John won. I surely would have voted for him. We need more politicians with the Duggar principles. I would love to follow this blog but don't know how to get on it . Thank you for the info you did share. Lynn, NJ
