Serving Waitsburg, Dayton and the Touchet Valley
To the Editor,
We the people need to do our homework when picking a Walla Walla County Commissioner. Checking to see where the money comes from for candidates is very telling. The liberal democratic candidate Bertha Clayton, has reportedly raised over fifty thousand dollars to date. Over $10,000 (20%) has been contributed by one family. The contributing family is at least a part of the Cottonwood Annexation proposal. This trend might suggest that consideration or influence may be available to the highest bidder.
When I see how much money Candidate Clayton has received from big money donors it concerns me. I’ve also researched the Washington State PDC report for campaign expenditures which shows over $12,000.00 in political signs were bought and paid for to printers in Tumwater WA. Supporting our own local businesses would be a much better out come.
I encourage voters to do your own research. It’s our responsibility to elect the candidate who will listen and act on behalf of the people. Not just some, but ALL the people.
