Election: Spitzer a good choice for Legislature

As a voter I’m looking for someone who supports small business and public education. Our current 26th District legislator, Rep. Michelle Caldier, has shown no interest in improving the funding situation in our public schools while also supporting our current tax structure that overtaxes seniors and the middle class.

Randy Spitzer is one of us. He understands finance and the economic needs of the area because he has lived and worked here for over 40 years. Randy taught music in the public schools for nine years and has been a small business owner. He served the community for several years as a member of Rotary Club and the Chamber of Commerce in Gig Harbor.

Please support Spitzer with your vote. He is the candidate for the 26th District who will protect our economic interests while supporting Washington's public education system and our children's futures
