This is HISTORY - Endorsed by ALL Colleagues on ANC3B

I'd like to thank my colleagues for their incredible support! It's an honor to receive these strong endorsements. It's an even greater honor to serve with such effective and dedicated leaders For All of Glover Park.


“As a fellow ANC Commissioner for the past two years, I whole heartedly endorse Alan Blevins and hope that he will remain commissioner as long as I am on the ANC. Alan is hardworking, fair and wants to do what is best for his little part of the neighborhood, Glover Park and Washington, DC. Please vote for Alan on November 4 and keep our ANC running smoothly and cooperatively.”

- Commissioner Cathy Fiorillo, 3B01

“It is an honor and a pleasure to work with Alan. His intelligence, perseverance, and quiet tenacity are traits that make him an effective ANC commissioner. We have faced many complex issues over the past two years. In navigating through them, his insightfulness has been invaluable to me and to the community. While it is sometimes easiest to listen to the loudest voice, Alan seeks to balance the many voices and many concerns surrounding the issues. We in Glover Park are fortunate to be able to call him one of our commissioners. Alan is a proven leader.”
- Commissioner Melissa J. Lane, 3B03

“Alan Blevins is one of the hardest working ANC Commissioners I have ever met. His SMD contains the commercial strip needs of the business community. He has my fullest endorsement for re-election.”

- Commissioner Horace Kreitzman, 3B04

"I've worked alongside Alan as an ANC Commissioner for the last two years, and seen first-hand his commitment to public service. He respects every viewpoint, listens to every concern, and finds solutions that bring all sides together. Alan's constituents in Glover Park are lucky to have him as their representative."

- Commissioner Brian A. Cohen, 3B05

Let's Talk About REAL Experience

I've accomplished a lot for Glover Park in the past few years, but recently I was asked about my qualifications. Before I moved to Glover Park, I was already an active community leader elsewhere in the District. So, if you'd like to know about the past in order to cast an informed vote in the present, here's an overview:
  • Commissioner, Advisory Neighborhood Commission 3B, Glover Park
  • Commissioner, Advisory Neighboorhood Commission 3C, two terms, Woodley Park
  • President, Woodley Park Community Association, three terms
  • Councilmember, Ryan White Planning Council, District of Columbia
I'm looking forward to continuing to help Glover Park now and in the future.

Help the Alan Blevins for Glover Park Campaign

Sometimes the Most Important Issues are a Matter of Personal Courtesy. In just 26 days Our Nation will head to the polls! And wherever your vote goes in this important election, there’s one central unifying theme: I need your help to get re-elected! Okay, this may be a great stretch but you know, I need all the help I can get. And today, this translates into delivering the dollars to win.

This past Sunday, I gathered at table (I cooked a lasagna … and it actually tasted good - miracles happen!) with my core committee to review our plan-of-action and budget. Suffice to say, there is a strong base of support; and I most seriously need to collect 93 individual contributions of $25 to meet our budget for maximum outreach and voter turnout. It’s only with your help that I will win in November. Please help with a contribution of $25 to Alan Blevins for ANC 3B02.

Thank you for the many who’ve already contributed - you’re great! And thank you in advance for first-time donors - your support and generosity is essential. I really appreciate everyone’s efforts to help re-elect Alan Blevins For Glover Park!
