Logan Day Upbeat After Unsuccessful Run For Mayor

After losing the race for Fishers Mayor by a margin of more than 3,000 votes, you would think Logan Day would be a little down or discouraged after reviewing the vote tallies.  In the two-man race for mayor, Day received just under 33% of the votes cast.

His voice was positive and upbeat as he spoke with LarryInFishers on Election night.

“While technically this was a loss, we all count this as a win,” Day said, “because there’s a lot of people who say, we’re just normal citizens and we’ve had the opportunity to participate in the process of government, and now we know how to look to the future and refine our process and learn how to do this again and again and again if necessary to make sure that we believe our voices are being heard.”

Day says he is glad he and Mayor Fadness ran a “clean campaign.”

He feels his campaign allowed “inclusion” of residents to the political process, allowing “average, everyday citizens” to become involved in the political process.

Now that Logan Day has been through his first experience as a political candidate, is he ready to try his hand at politics again?

“There was a lot of discussion tonight (Tuesday) about what’s next,” said Day.  “I don’t know.  I’ll have to talk with my wife and think about what the needs and objectives are for our family.”
