It's nice to have a background in business assistance or law enforcement, but this position requires far more. It's no place for political beginners. Although I'm no career politician, I've spent thousands of volunteer hours, over 10 years making government work for the people. I'm a proven, strong, effective voice for common sense in local leadership, simply doing what's right. I can make tough decisions affecting your tax dollars

We must re-evaluate current programs for effectiveness & waste first, not create new taxes. Smarter decisions must be made. It's long past time to think outside the box and my record shows I do that

You won't find a list of campaign promises here, designed to appease PAC's and minority groups, just my promise to listen to everyone and do my very best for all. I am open, honest and I create solutions

Today's hot topic will soon move on to other issues, so don't pick candidates whose background's focus on one or two issues. Be confident that who you elect can deal effectively with every new issue that arises, because they surely will.

Before you vote, ask the associates of the candidates if they are really trusted, true, effective leaders.
