We're in this together!
As the
campaign season heats up, there will be numerous opportunities for Park County
residents to become involved in the election process and in the campaigns of
political candidates.
First and
foremost: while voting is a right
guaranteed to us under the U.S. Constitution, your vote only counts if you
exercise it on Nov. 4. Regardless of
your political persuasion, please exercise your right to vote.
I would like to take this opportunity to extend a special "thank you" to my campaign treasurer, businesswoman Carrie Marsh. Many of you know Carrie, and her services have already been indispensable to me.
What can
you do to help my candidacy?
Take the time to communicate
your questions, concerns, and interests
As a
candidate, I want to know what’s on your mind.
During my campaign, I intend to work hard to merit your support on Nov.
4. I will respond to emails and letters
so you will know that I am available and accessible. I am happy to include your concerns on the
“Campaign Conversations” tab of my website so others can read about my
responses to individual concerns and issues.
My contact information can be found on the “Contact Lora” tab.
Invite me out for a cup of
coffee; invite me to your group or organization meetings
I am happy
to meet with people one-on-one or in group settings to talk about the important
issues facing Park
County. If your group or organization endorses
political candidates, give me an opportunity to make a presentation so you can
see where I stand on issues that are important to you.
See
“Contact Lora” for information.
Talk me up with your friends
and neighbors
As those of
us who live in Park
County know, information
travels quickly by word of mouth. If you
see me as the kind of candidate you can support, let your friends and neighbors
know this. And please tell them why!
Support my candidacy with your letters to the
editor
In Park County,
we have several newspapers which print letters to the editor on a weekly
basis. As we move into the campaign
season, share your opinion and support with others. See “Useful Links” for newspaper websites.
Campaign
contributions are gratefully accepted
Political
campaigning, even at the local level, is not cheap. It is my desire to run a cost-effective
campaign that will communicate the kind of information necessary to help voters
make their own informed decisions.
If you
would like to contribute to my campaign for District 1 Commissioner, your
donation will be gladly accepted. Please
note acceptance of a campaign contribution is not a promise of a future favor. Rather, a contribution to me is your
investment in good government.
