Supporting Tarkanian
Editor:
We are writing to encourage others to support Danny Tarkanian and vote for him in the upcoming Primary. We have lived in Douglas County for over 37 years and have been involved in many local issues. In the years we’ve been in the County, we’ve never seen a commissioner send out the emails that Danny Tarkanian does, keeping us up to date on important issues, providing support to our local small business owners, and adding support for our local animals in need of adoption. When he first moved here four plus years ago to run against then Commissioner Nelson, we were concerned. But we are pleased to be proven wrong as we see the work Commissioner Tarkanian does for our community. Danny doesn’t just talk the talk, but he delivers on his promises and works tirelessly for all citizens of Douglas County and not just the rich and powerful interests that seem to have an undue influence in the wrong direction the County is going.
During this time of unprecedented growth and change in the County, it’s especially important to know what each candidate stands for. In addition to what a candidate says, we would also suggest looking at the campaign finance disclosures to see who is providing support to which candidate. Unfortunately, these aren’t available and may not be before the Primary. Another, simpler way to get this information is to simply see who has campaign signs on their property. I see Danny Tarkanian’s signs on individual property owners. Setting the example of being for the people and not just those that are perhaps looking for favors from our elected officials.
Commissioner Tarkanian is the best hope we have to have a real voice in how our County conducts their business and we encourage you to support his work for us.
