Voters in the 31st Legislative District now have an excellent choice for the state Senate seat.

When the Top Two primary left us with two intolerable choices, Roach and Richardson, I considered not voting. But voting is very important to me. I know that the people we elect can affect every day of our lives.

Brian L. Gunn has solved my dilemma by stepping forward as a write-in candidate. I know him and his integrity and dedication are outstanding. He works hard for what is right, with the Clean Elections organization to try to level the playing field, for the environment in work parties to clean up and restore habitat in our area, for education as an after school tutor for elementary and middle school students.

I am happy to write in a vote for this man of integrity, Brian L. Gunn, for the state Senate.
