As we draw near to Election Day my family and I wanted to take a moment to say “Thank you” to Mr. Bill Walker for making a difference in our state this campaign season. Because of you Bill, we Alaskans have a rational home team choice this November.

As a parent and an Alaskan we desperately need men like Bill Walker & Byron Mallott not only as leaders, but mentors for our sons and daughters across this great state. Bill,….. you and Bryon bring the qualities to the table and I feel confident that your administration will continue emulating working together standing strong for Alaska values. From a sustainable economy to a sustainable budget, you have taken the challenge to lead us out from the days of deficit spending and using your words “putting Alaskans first” so future generations can not only dream of living here, but instead live the Alaska dream.

The leadership and skills required for this daunting task is reserved for a few select men and women willing to take the challenge. We Alaskans are fortunate to have a fellow Alaskan name Bill Walker willing to take the hits, blows and the challenge head on. Bill, you have said “if your family was sinking in a boat how hard would you bail water?” Let me say, the bilge pumps are on and this family is bailing with 5 gal buckets to help build a stronger safe Alaska. As an Alaskan family we are standing next to you to bail together, to make a difference, not to be buffaloed by the opponent, and to build a bright future for the children, women and men of this state. You can count on our family vote this November!

I look forward to your leadership in Juneau.
