04/27/2007: "A Plea For Change"

To the Editor:

The last few years have shown us that the county council is rivaled only by the US Senate in their inability or unwillingness to govern effectively for all their constituents. This November we have an opportunity to change that a bit. Patty Miller is running unopposed for Gene Knapp's seat. I have worked with Patty and found her to be very very accomplished. I don't know of anybody who is better at doing their homework. Lovel Pratt also does her homework and is not up for election this cycle. If the district two voters will be kind enough to replace Rich Peterson with Laura Jo Severson we will be in the position of having 50 % of the county council being accomplished motivated women. Then maybe we could get something done.

This has to be good for all of us.

Please elect Laura Jo Severson for County Council District 2.
