As both the NDP candidate for Langford-Juan De Fuca and leader of the opposition, MLA John Horgan has an interesting road ahead this election.
Part of juggling both ends however is about finding dedicated people, as Horgan refers to his campaign team to keep the momentum going in his riding by being B次元官网网址渄eeply connectedB次元官网网址� to the community. Through their eyes so to speak, Horgan is playing the game on both ends from across the province.
B次元官网网址淚B次元官网网址檓 in touch with them as much as I can be during the campaign and making sure to keep my eye on whatB次元官网网址檚 happening in the riding while IB次元官网网址檓 travelling around working with the rest of my team to build a better B.C.,B次元官网网址� Horgan wrote in an email to the Sooke B次元官网网址 Mirror on Monday.
It still comes at a price however, as Horgan added that one of the hardest things about leading the NDP is that he canB次元官网网址檛 spend as much time as he used to in Sooke, especially during the election campaign. Same goes for attending local all candidate debates, one of which is in Sooke on April 25.
B次元官网网址淚 wish I could, but campaigning to be premier means IB次元官网网址檓 not going to be able to make it to all candidate debates in the riding this time around. IB次元官网网址檒l be able to do so much more for Sooke, and for all of B.C. as premier. I think the people of Sooke understand that,B次元官网网址� he said.
Horgan said the difference in this election is that as leader, heB次元官网网址檚 crisscrossing the province talking to voters about affordability, services they can count on and a sustainable economy with good jobs and better wages. All good things for everyone, though he said he wonB次元官网网址檛 lose focus on his responsibilities to Sooke as well.
B次元官网网址淚tB次元官网网址檚 tough to be living out of your own suitcase rather than from your own bed, but itB次元官网网址檚 a small sacrifice for me for the enormous benefit that will come to B.C. if weB次元官网网址檝e got a government that will deliver on the things that I heard about, not just in Sooke, but in Langford and across the province,B次元官网网址� Horgan said.
