Vote Walker/Mallot & Ortiz on Nov. 4th

Our Alaskan people finally have the opportunity to vote for two Alaskans, Bill Walker and Byron Mallott who were born and raised in Alaska. We are not against big money being invested in Alaska, as long as it does not hurt our environment, animals and our seafoods. Please look at who was hired to work in our fisheries; he worked for the Pebble Mine; hiring someone like that is like getting a coyote to take care of your chickens.

Please get out and vote, vote for Bill Walker, Byron Mallot and Dan Ortiz on November 4th.
