Weissman for Rep District 1A…

April 26, 2018

Dear Editor,

Here’s why Ellen Weissman gets my vote on May 15 for Idaho House of Representatives District 1A:

Ellen listens well to people’s needs and finds cost-effective ways to help them; Ellen is sensitive to the needs of education/educators being a retired educator herself; Ellen is a creative grants writer and fundraiser as demonstrated in her role as executive director of Sandpoint Area Seniors, Inc.; Ellen is committed to the preservation of clean air and water in our beautiful forest and lake environment.

A vote for Ellen Weissman is a vote for preserving quality of life for all of us who are blessed to call North Idaho our home.
