      Southeast Alaska, in the next few weeks we are going to be inundated
      with advertising regarding the upcoming election on November
      2nd. One race in particular that I think is important to keep
      informed about is the State Senate District "A".  
 
      In the past few years I have spent countless hours in Juneau
      observing and working in the legislature. I have seen the "typical"
      politicians come and go and I feel I have a good understanding
      of what motivates these individuals. Personally I feel in the
      next election we must support leaders with experience, and the
      integrity to stand up for what they think is right.  
 
      I want a Senator who is a typical Southeast Alaskan, a Senator
      who is a Fisherman, a Construction Worker, and a Small Business
      Man. Not a person who is driven by political pandering, and who
      wants to befriend radical environmentalists and shares the ballot
      with the likes of John Kerry, Tony Knowles, and Kim Elton.  
 
      I want a Senator who knows how our Southeast economy works and
      will tirelessly work on new ways to improve our standard of living.
 
 
      For these reasons (and many more), I will be voting to keep Senator
      Bert Stedman in Juneau. I want to support Southeast Alaska, so
      I am backing Bert.  
 
      Join me and thousands of other Southeast Alaskans and Vote for
      Bert Stedman on November 2nd.
