I’ve joined 11 Republicans to run for Precinct Committeemen (PCs) in The Golden Eagle Precinct. If you are a registered Republican living in Fountain Hills, you will shortly receive a ballot for the Aug. 30, 2016 Primary.

All the candidates have resided in Fountain Hills for quite some time and believe a change in this grass root operation is in order.

I’ve been a board member of the FHCCA (Fountain Hills Cultural and Civic Association), responsible for the Poinsettia Tree and spearheaded the Automated External Defibrillator (AED) Program with the support of Sheriff Joe Arpaio. The AED Program saved four lives to date. Other candidates have contributed much more to the town and the Republican Party.

The 2016 Republican Presidential Primary opened my eyes to some inequities in the system; it’s time for change. With your vote we will make a difference.

Please vote for the following candidates: Marie and Boe James, Arlie and Harold Denomme, Walt Franklin, Rosemary and David Hansen, Lauren Stefanovich, Edith and Richard Stock, Cecil Yates and Philip Gaziano.

Thank you.
