I am looking for answers to some questions about our state leadership. Please tell me why we should re-elect our current governor?

I believe she is completely unaccountable to her constituents and I cannot find anything meaningful that she has accomplished.

There has been no discernable change in any state agency where audits have shown extended inefficiencies.

A specific example is the Washington State ferries. Gov. Locke increased our gas tax in 2003 specifically to replace aging ferries. Nothing has been accomplished, but millions have been spent on studies. And our gas tax is being regularly increased again. For what? More studies?

Our governor must be held accountable. In business, if a person does not perform, they are replaced.

Wake up Washington voters - that is, assuming we can get an accurate vote count this time.
