To the editor:

We are casting our votes today for Drew Hansen, 23rd District.

Rep. Drew is thoughtful, articulate and has the skills necessary to analyze the issues facing the state. He has shown energy and leadership on the floor of the House.

We know Drew and his wife, Julie, through our church, Bethany Lutheran. We admire these busy young parents who take the time to share their faith values with their two children.

We need people like Drew Hansen in Olympia. He has the heart, mind, talent and good sense to serve our district and the state.
