Snyder is best bet

Sun., Aug. 16, 2009

The Spokesman-Review

I’ll get right to it. I support Jon Snyder for Spokane city councilman from the 2nd District. And I urge others to do likewise.

I worked with Jon on the creation of KYRS radio, so I can vouch firsthand for his intelligence, energy and good judgment.

In selecting Jon as my candidate, I’ve placed him ahead of some formidable rivals. I believe Mike Allen has been an excellent councilman, and except for Mr. Ridgley, who needs more seasoning, the others would make acceptable if not stellar council persons. But with Jon we are getting a man with a rare combination of intelligence, business experience and a profound concern for citizens other than the elite. See this for yourself. Go to his Web site and track his history.
