Is he the only SPUSA member elected to public office right now or are there more?

There is a member of the Socialist Party who was elected to a Citizens District Council in Detroit last year. Besides them, I think they are the only SP members elected to office.
Couple minor corrections to the article- Pat is 19, not 20, and I think he was only elected state secretary in 2011.
