Vote for Skaug, Bailey

There is an election coming up on Dec. 10 for MLIRD directors. You should vote for David Skaug and Bill Bailey if any of the following apply to you.

1. If you don't want your MLIRD assessment illegally raised again.

2. If you're upset that your current assessment was illegally raised in the past to its current level.

3. If you're as mad as I am that the district illegally taxed land owners that weren't even in the district and have stalled, ignored, and refused to make the refunds to those that have it coming except for a few that were large enough that it would have been worth their time and expense to sue the district if necessary.

4. If it irritates you current election methods utilized by the district gives about 20 large landowners the majority of control of the outcome of the election. Last election, David Skaug got 66% of the vote by individuals at the polls on election night and 18% of the absentee votes of which is the majority are controlled by the above mentioned large land owners and still lost.

If any or all of the above seem to you as injustice that would only take place in some far away third world country and surely not here, please motivate yourself to help bring a stop to these examples of malfeasance and vote for David Skaug and Bill Bailey, both of which have been in business in Moses Lake for many years and are known for their honesty and integrity and will bring the same to the MLIRD.
