Swapp needed now in Olympia | Letters


October 23, 2012 · Updated 2:46 PM 

What are the needs of our county and state? Improved economy, education reform, conservation and property rights lead the list.

John Swapp is looking forward to taking the reigns from Kevin Ranker to address these issues.

John is a manufacturing business owner and resident of Decatur Island. John has balanced budgets, dealt with state agencies, written paychecks and sailed the pristine waters of San Juan County.

Ranker can’t seem to “Discover” how his legislation has hurt SJC residents.We need to be represented by a senator who has the common sense not to bring senseless legislation into law that would bully pregnancy centers.

Give Washington what she needs.Vote John Swapp for Washington state Senate.

Michelle Loftus, San Juan Island

— Editor’s note:  Michelle Loftus is chairwoman of the SJC GOP
