Why I’m Asking for Your Vote

Our district, HD-101 (map), needs enlightened representation that ministers to the present and invests in the future, not representation that’s penny wise and pound foolish.

Our current representative, Spencer Gentry voted for tax cuts for the rich &emdash; but he voted against repairing roads and schools, against better health care for fire fighters, against six job training programs.

That’s wrong. Spencer’s looking out for his wealthy buddies at the country club — he’s not looking out for you. Download Why Rep. Gentry Must Go (PDF).

It’s time to replace Spencer with a representative who cares about and works for all hard working men and women. I’ll look out for your interests.
