ANC

I have my temporary DC Driver's License. I have made certain my voter registration is current.

I picked up my petitions to get on the ballot for ANC, and I already have 12 valid signatures (and 7 invalid ones). I need 25 valid signatures total before 5 pm on Wednesday (which, by the way, is 90 days to the election).

Wish me luck.

Wait, what?

I'm so sorry, I"ve missed a chapter...what is ANC?

Don't get me wrong, I knew you were contemplating for some kind of neighborhood leadership position, just don't remember what it was.

Anyway, good luck!

Advisory Neighborhood Commission(er) -- the commission and the person who serves on it both get abbreviated to ANC. Essentially, the ANC is the first level of government for about 2000 people. As a group, we look at the impact of housing projects, office buildings, etc. We hold developers' feet to the fire on things like affordable and workforce housing goals.

This is a basic explanation:

If you look at the map which is linked in the article above, I'm running for 6D02.
