In the Maine Nov 6, 2012, General Election for the Maine House of Representatives I was defeated by 62 votes (0.014% of 4190 votes) by longtime Democratic representative Joseph Brooks who ran as an INDEPENDENT.

I thank the people who have inspired me and helped me in this endeavor.
It is a personal and private exchange between me and my friends as well as those with whom I want to privately exchange this personal information.
When I first started to write my ideas for making our US Constitution better, I tried to keep "Each Note" as brief as a letter to the editor of the NY Times newspaper. But the  "NYT" was too restrictive. I did notice that the NY Times published many editorials that were much longer, and I concluded long was allowed only to the famous and eloquent like Stephen King. So, I set goals for my notes. I would make then only as long as an 8 1/2" by 11" page in 12-point type. I use Microsoft Word's "Editor" icon to check my grammar, spelling, and literary style. I try to achieve "Editor" scores for my writing of ninety-five and above for formal, professional, and casual styles.
My “Notes” are about revising the US Constitution "electoral college system" were a way to express my opinion, free speech. I thought that if I share my opinions with others, especially through digital exchanges, my opinion ought to give appropriate attribution to the original authors who convinced me to speak their words and works. Consequently, I checked the internet for a good plagiarism checking application for you to check my expressions. See the Ten Best at https://www.scribbr.com/plagiarism/best-free-plagiarism-checker/
The number one recommendation was https://www.scribbr.com/plagiarism/best-free-plagiarism-checker/
Everything I have learned, know, and remember I got from someone else.
I plagiarize whenever I repeat what I have learned, know, or remember. The literature police have even created an app to check out everything that I write or say. So, If I forgot  to give citations, use the fact and plagiarism checker.
