TO THE EDITOR:

I would like to let all of my relatives, neighbors and friends know that I am supporting Ben Montzka for re-election as our county commissioner. Ben Montzka works hard for the people of our district whether it is fighting against the hostile annexation or making sure we get our fair share of services.

I know that I can count on Ben Montzka not to sell out our interests as taxpayers just to be popular with politicians.

Our community needs Ben on the county board. I can say that from personal knowledge because I know the county board. I was the county commissioner who represented our community on the county board from January 1995 to December 1998.
