We thought our fellow Bainbridge citizens would like to know why we’re voting for James Olsen for state representative.

Folks, we’re in a severe economic recession/depression. Without a strong economy, our social programs will have to be compromised.

A recession is never the time to raise taxes and increase regulation.

James Olsen understands the steps that need to be taken to improve our state’s economy. We need a representative who has the courage to stand up to special interest groups and legislate what is best for all Washingtonians.

Please join us in voting for James Olsen for state representative.
