Letters In The Gazette

The voice of reason.

Editor, the Gazette:
With control of the Assembly at stake again this year, it is vital that we
elect the strongest candidates in the primary Sept. 12.In the 80th District, we
have a strong candidate in Janis Ringhand. Her experience in business served her
well in Evansville city government. Her four years of experience as alder and
two terms as mayor will serve the entire district well in Madison.
She successfully led Evansville in a time of 30 percent growth and led the
city through the process of developing a Smart Growth Plan that brought all
involved parties together. She worked tirelessly to lay the groundwork for a
successful downtown construction project and to bring new industry to
Evansville.
Her opponent is earnest but inexperienced in government. I'll be voting for
a proven leader Tuesday.
