Fagan deserves your vote

It’s election season and your vote is important to vote against candidates with agenda-only policies. Haven’t we had enough of those?

We need leaders who put the people they are sworn to represent first. Who does this with selfless hard work for the people? Mike Fagan, running for Spokane City Council president, has proven year after year, time after time, that he is the rare candidate who cares about helping people in whatever district they live. Fagan is bold, fearless, God-fearing, a veteran, kind, the hardest-working current City Council member, and shows up at practically every event in the city! That doesn’t happen with other council members. He’s there for us, for a better Spokane.

Spokane has growing multiple concerns. I am ashamed to say (too often) our fire and emergency folk clean up feces, needles and garbage in places such as the new downtown dog park. Our Lady of Lourdes has become unsafe for many parishioners. Citizens’ safety hasn’t been adequately addressed, except by Mike Fagan.

Vote Mike Fagan for City Council president, Tony Kiepe for South Council District, and Tim Benn for East Council District. Honorable men, all, and deserving of your vote.
