Um, you know, you've heard me like a broken record about low turnouts, a problem anywhere and everywhere. And, you know, there was a contested race, but two races are not contested. So I know that's having less than 5% turnout I know it frustrates you as much as anybody else that you just don't see as many voters as you'd like to see, but I think, uh, job well done, and thank you for all your work and all your work here, Deputy Clerk Robinson, as well. Thank you. Thank you.
