THANK YOU to everyone who voted for me in the May 2002 primary elections. By receiving 62.7% of the votes cast, my name is the only one shown under the “Mayor of Salem” position on your ballot. Your vote for me this November will reconfirm that our community supports a new direction that represents a positive, balanced approach to issues.

I look forward to beginning my two-year term as Mayor in January 2003. The vision of what our City can be is clear in the message relayed to me over the last several months. Residents want a safe community, job opportunities, and a vibrant downtown. Together we can:

• Ensure a healthy economy by keeping businesses strong.

• Recruit businesses that provide new jobs and will be active in our community.

• Provide lower police, fire and emergency response times.

• Make our downtown a place where people want to live, work and play.

• Secure stable funding so our library can keep consistent hours.

ENDORSEMENTS:

Former Salem Mayors: Tom Neilsen, Kent Aldrich

Former City Councilor: George Puentes

Salem First Citizens: Ted Stang, Ken Sherman Jr., Jerry Berger, Vicki Berger
