Says to vote for four for County Council

I have already sent in my ballot. I voted for Dan McShane, Ken Mann, Carl Weimer and Laurie Caskey-Schreiber. These candidates should be elected to the County Council because they have the experience and dedication to public service needed to do an excellent job of representing the citizens of Whatcom County. They all have strong records of supporting the values of the people of Whatcom County.

If you value working farms, clean drinking water and strong local businesses but you are feeling like this election isn't all that important, consider that special interests who profit from unlimited sprawl think it's important enough to have poured tens of thousands of dollars into the campaigns of the other candidates.

Don't let those special interests take over our county. If you haven't already done so, please, please get that ballot out right now and vote for Dan McShane, Ken Mann, Carl Weimer and Laurie Caskey-Schreiber for County Council.
