Supports Streissguth for County Commission

Published 9:58 am Friday, October 10, 2014

Incumbent Kitsap County Commissioner Linda Streissguth and her opponent Ed Wolfe both seem so appealing it’s hard for voters to sort substance from charm. What sets Linda apart is her remarkable breadth and depth of hard-earned experience in solving the same kinds of land-use and strategic planning issues that face her now as county commissioner. It’s rare for a new commissioner to come to the job so thoroughly prepared.

Linda’s leadership style has earned the respect of even the toughest critics among those she has worked with on city and county advisory groups and commissions. They learned that she is smart, passionate about community service and works tirelessly at finding ways to bring people together.

Her opposition and his supporters say it’s about “balance”; but the word “balance” really sums up Linda’s approach to problems. She has an impressive history of working across partisan lines to find solutions that are fair to all stakeholders. Linda is known for working effectively with community groups and agencies across the political spectrum.

When it comes to seasoned performance, balanced perspective and proven capabilities, Linda is clearly the best choice to help map a healthy and sustainable future for Kitsap County.
