A Timeline of Historic Missteps and Accidental Success.
- 2019 – Gabe accidentally speaks at a city zoning meeting. People cheer. He assumes they liked it.
- 2020 – First campaign yard sign goes up (in the wrong yard, but the homeowner liked it).
- 2021 – Gabe declares “Fiscal Responsibility Month,” then loses the budget binder.
- 2022 – Hosts his first “Unity BBQ”—burns the hot dogs, unites the town in sympathy.
- 2023 – Launches official party website. Misspells his own name. Fixes it (eventually).
- 2025 – Surging in the polls. Or maybe it was gas prices. Either way—he’s trending!
