A Vote for Jack Miller

Dear Editor,

I am writing to endorse Jack Miller for Columbia County Commissioner, Position #3. My wife, Kris, grew up in Dayton, and we moved here from the Seattle area in 1988. I have known Jack since the 1990s and had the opportunity to get to know Jack while working with him when we have volunteered for community events associated with the Dayton Chamber of Commerce.

Jack has the knowledge and experience we need! Jack was raised in eastern Washington and has farmed in the Columbia and Walla Walla Valley for over 20 years and has over 30 years of Ag Business Management experience. He’s a WSU graduate with an Ag Economics degree. His Ag experience includes working with and managing large numbers of employees, which will be very helpful in reducing turnover to our county staff.

Jack is the person we need to lead our county. He is conservative and a lifelong Republican. He’s an avid hunter and has served on state and local boards, he understands how the system works. His extensive management, supervisory experience, and education have given him the tools needed to hit the ground running when he is elected.

When you vote on or before November 8, base your vote on experience and leadership! Most importantly, vote for the person who cares the most about Columbia County and the person who will work with everyone. Please join me and support Jack Miller for Columbia County Commissioner.
