Why isn't this viewed as a negative? Enough of these life long politicians. We need new people with fresh ideas.

If it's at large I'll even sign your nomination papers for the 2017 election. It's too late to get papers in for the 2015 election, I will write you in though, if you so desire.

Doug just needs to cross out Sheriff and write Councillor.
Personally, if I failed at getting elected, I'd take down the signs with my name on them, but that's just me.
