Over the past few months I had the privilege of attending various fundraisers for candidates that are running in the 2010 mid-term election and I am convinced that Barbara Bailey is the right person to represent the 10th Legislative District for Washington state.

At these fundraisers I have continuously watched her engage with her constituents as she listens to their opinions on the issues and how the choices that have been made by our current representatives have affected their lives. Some testimonies are good and some could be better, but all of them have one thing in common: an attentive ear from Barbara Bailey. When she is asked a question, she makes sure to give a clear and concise answer, which shows that she listens to her constituents. This is so refreshing!

In a day and age when everyday issues can be divisive and complex Barbara Bailey seeks to unite people by using common sense answers, and approaches, so that her constituents can understand how the Washington Legislature is working to meet their best interests. Amongst her top issues are the economy and jobs, making sure that we have the money that we need in our pockets to provide for our homes and families.

This election season my vote will be going for Barbara Bailey for the 10th Legislative District.
