And so I think it's important, as I get around all eleven counties and talk to folks, that we explain exactly what's going on here. It's unusual that there's a special election. And so The special election is to serve from November 12 through the end of the year for Mike Gallagher's seat since he resigned on April 18. So there will be two spots to vote for me on the ballot on November 5, and one is for the special election. And again, that is for November 12 through the end of the year. (01:44–01:56)
