It’s an honor to be the next Tribal Council representative for Snowbird and Cherokee County. I am very pleased with the results of the election and would like to give all the glory to God. Through him all things are possible.
I look forward to working with Chief Hicks, Vice Chief Blythe, Adam Wachacha and all the other Tribal Council members in moving the Eastern Band of Cherokees forward into the future. I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their support and prayers during this humbling process.
I am excited about working on securing the future of the Tribe. I see great things in the Tribe’s future, and I am blessed to be a part of the process. I feel like something great is about to happen.
I want to thank Diamond Brown for this service to the Eastern Band. I want to thank all of the enrolled members who came out to the polls in each precinct for making a difference and doing their part to be involved. Sometimes, I think we underestimate the significance of our single vote in these elections, and sometimes I think we may feel as if our vote doesn’t always count and that’s a stigma that I want us to move away from in the future.
Every voice needs to be heard, and we all need to come together and work together in a positive way to move forward and make each generation better than the generation before. Our ability to stick together as a Nation in the past, during adverse times, has always been the reason we have come out on top. I want to bring our communities together and make us stronger as a people. I look forward to serving on Tribal Council the next two years.
Signed,
Brandon Jones
