To The Editor:

With less than 100 days to our Midterm elections on November 3rd, I want to express my support for the Democratic ticket. These past few years, I have viewed the positions and character of the candidates individually and the parties as a whole. It is without a doubt, the values and beliefs that I want to raise my children with are clearly supported by the candidates within the Democratic Party.

Michelle Embree Ku exemplifies the character who I would want to be representing us next term. She has been a local leader who has proven herself to be an advocate for like-minded causes: education, hunger, housing, healthcare, and the environment to name a few. She has worked across the aisle and voted for compromised solutions, she has shown herself to be a true leader to look out for the best in our community. Finally, she listens to our concerns. She may not agree with everyone but considers differing viewpoints when shaping her opinion. Please join me in supporting Michelle on November 3rd.
