Dear Editor,
If you are a registered Republican, or an independent/unaffiliated voter, please vote for Carol Kunzeman for Bonner County Commissioner in the Republican Primary Election May 15.
Kunzeman served as Ponderay’s mayor for eight years and for five years as a member of the council. During that time, Kunzeman demonstrated what public service is all about. Kunzeman treats people with respect, including her opponents. She speaks the truth, and takes the time to learn how to best meet the needs of her constituents. We need her kind of leadership now more than ever.
Carol Kunzeman is a hard, honest worker who cares deeply about her community. While she is a compassionate and generous person, she understands that responsible and responsive leadership requires professionalism, transparency and living within a limited budget.
Many important policy decisions that affect our day-to-day lives are made at the county level. Usually the winner of the Republic primary prevails in the general election — so now is the time to make your vote count. Please request the Republic ballot on May 15 and vote for Carol Kunzeman.
