Editor, The Spotlight:
I am a local business owner and thoroughbred horse trainer, and know how difficult it is to operate a profitable business. However it does take good work ethics and fiscal responsibility to ensure a business survives. Having these qualities is why I want to encourage all voters to vote for Senator Roy McDonald because of his experience in the private sector. Being in the private sector teaches us to obtain the maximum benefit with the least cost. The state government is in a fiscal crisis and every penny of our taxes needs to be used wisely. This is the reason why we need Senator McDonald to continue his work because he understands how private business operates. Senator McDonald can apply that no nonsense approach to state government achieving the best bang for our buck. We need more people like Senator McDonald who have private sector knowledge and can and will apply it to government. His opponent doesn’t have private sector knowledge or experience. Senator McDonald is a well respected and experienced statesman. He has more times than I can count used his ability to work with others for the benefit of our district. From the governor on down Senator McDonald is known as a person you can trust. His years of service as an elected official are an asset to all that live in this Senate district. Senator McDonald makes it happen. When it comes time to vote, vote for the candidate that serves the people first, vote for Senator Roy McDonald. Edward Miller
