Backing Tarkanian
Editor:
I watched the Commissioner candidates debate on Wednesday night on the Record Courier website link, and what a rude awakening I had. Although I congratulate all who participated, some of the commissioner candidates were not at all informed of some of the issues. One candidate, in particular, kept referring to what looked like “prepared responses.” What was that all about? The only current Commissioner candidate, other than Commissioner Gardner, who had specifics to respond to the questions posed by the moderators was District 1 Commissioner Danny Tarkanian. Every time, Tarkanian answered clearly and concisely why he voted the way he had on the questions and issues posed to the candidates at Wednesday’s debate. Unlike some other candidates, his responses were not rehearsed or scripted. They were genuine and based on his deep understanding of the issues at hand.
Many of my friends have shared their positive experiences with Commissioner Tarkanian, which have left them feeling hopeful about the future. They’ve mentioned how he keeps them well-informed about the issues and never hesitates to return calls, regardless of the caller’s district. One friend even shared that they didn’t vote for Danny 4 years ago but are now planning to, thanks to his consistent feedback and dedication to his constituents. This is a testament to his positive impact on our community.
I am proud to say I am definitely voting to re-elect District 1 Commissioner Candidate Danny Tarkanian.
