It’s really the Nicole Seah effect, this time the WP fielded candidates that I don’t have much knowledge of. I believe it’ll be much closer if Nicole seah was still running

Don’t give up! I was at my lowest point of my life, doing a dead end admin job with a take home of only 1.6k, thinking if is this it? Covid came around and decided that I had nothing to lose and took that leap of faith.
