We’ve seen what inexperience and ineptitude looks like at the highest levels of our federal government over the past four years. The last thing our islands need is to bring that type of leadership home to San Juan County in the midst of a 100-year pandemic and severe economic uncertainty.

We need to elect a county councilperson who is experienced in policy and government and who will work for all islanders.

That’s why I’m voting for Ryan Palmateer.
