Hello Raul1 thank you for sharing your flash fiction with us, I think you executed well within the rules of the writing prompt. As a undercover nerd myself, I agree nerds are cool. Good job and good luck in the contest.

Hello! I enjoyed reading this flash piece with a wonderful message. I was hoping it was based on a true story, but I'd like to think that somewhere, this kind of thing actually happened.
Thanks for sharing.
Take care,
Erika

I like that you took the challenge and wrote about a school setting. It is a microcosm of the greater world. If something like bullying can be stopped by electing a nerd, then I hope choosing the right presidential candidate will get rid of bullies in our country. Best wishes in the contest!

Nicely done, Mystery Writer!! I love the idea of the nerd triumphing at life...especially school life. But I also loved the simple way it was presented. I bet this will garner lots of votes for YOU--even though you are obviously NOT a nerd!!

An up to date story about good and evil. What made the nerd a nerd? His or her clothes? Hair style? Grades in school?
Your story was all telling and no show. That's why only 4 stars.
Jason who wore high water pants and a pocket protector was classified as a nerd but was running for class president.
Good luck!

Your contest entry made a great, and true statement, about
voting, Mystery Author. Every vote counts. I enjoyed reading
your little story. Many times, the underdog wins in elections--
esp if s/he had the support of those who will get out and vote.
Your words flow smoothly with good info and a great reason
to vote.
Best wishes in the contest, Jan

Th election was between the nerd and a bully. The nerd won in a lanslide. ( landslide)It was the nerd's dream come true.
One of his goals, if elected(,) was to work on the issue of bullying. He's off to a great start. Even the bully, and those like him, have begun to change. This was all because of a vote. Remember(,) every vote counts. Even one vote can be the difference between a candidate winning or losing.
