Letter To Editor – Endorsement By Joe Polowski

Typewriter with paper reading "Letters to the Editor"

In our coming council election I’m endorsing Scott Campbell and Dee Cragun. I have known Scott for several years and have found him to be smart, thoughtful and a man of strong character and common sense. I also have concerns about his opponent Diane Pfaeffle’s affiliation with the local chapter of the extreme left group Indivisable.org. They support open borders, no jail for illegal immigrants, an extreme version of the green new deal, and special rights for some groups above others. They have also stated that for government “deficit spending poses  little or no risk” and encourage it. In the other race, I know Fred Senn and he would do OK on council. But in the term I spent on council and the many years I attended council meetings Dee was the best councilman I saw. Thanks Joe Polowski
