Another Write In Candidate for ANC6B04

Posted October 30, 2024

Matt Miller has announced his candidacy for the ANC6B4 seat which currently does not have a candidate listed on the ballot for the November 5 election.  This appears to be the only seat contested by two announced write-in candidacy in the four ANCs which are regularly covered by CHC.  (CHC has previously reported on the write in candidacy of Brian Gorman for the seat.) 

Matt Miller’s candidate statement:  “I am running for ANC 6B04 because local representation is extra important in Washington, DC, where federal politicians use our services and tax revenue but refuse to grant us a vote in Congress.  I used to live in this district for several years and recently moved back with my fiancée in July, drawn to return by the sense of peaceful and friendly community hopefully to start raising a family.

My professional experience leading EV and clean policy efforts for a large manufacturing company informs my key focus for this role: continue the progress toward less car-centric infrastructure on Capitol Hill.  Protected bike lanes (namely, 11th St.), universal daylighting at crosswalks in the neighborhood, increased public transit and green spaces, and other traffic-slowing measures will ensure that young families and long-time residents alike are safely prioritized.

I also hope to protect every neighborhood resident’s access to opportunity, through small business-focused growth on Barracks Row and Pennsylvania Ave., housing options that balance affordability and local history, and an improved education system that keeps resident young people safe and engaged both inside the classroom and outside school.

I love this community and I would be humbled and honored to represent it as a fierce advocate on the ANC.
