The Times - Serving Waitsburg, Dayton and the Touchet Valley

Dear Editor,

The responsibilities of County Commissioners is varied but none is more important than the assembling and overseeing of the expense budget of the County. Dain Nysoe is the candidate for Columbia County Commissioner more qualified to be able this handle this task. The budget for Columbia County is millions of taxpayer dollars and it is vital we elect someone with the background and ability to understand the finances of the County. Dain is the right person for this position. His background in business and economics qualifies him to do this Job. He taught “Intro to Business”, “Small Business Management” and “Organizational Management” at the college level. His work for Kitsap County, before returning to Dayton, included consolidating cost centers to more effectively monitor budget compliance and expenditures. Dain understands balance sheets, profit and loss statements and has the other financial skills to be able to assist in the running of the County. He presently manages the family farm in Columbia County.

I am asking you to join me in voting for the most qualified candidate, Dain Nysoe, to fill this important position in our county government.
