Wilhite a proven leader

District 4 deserves a state representative who has proved she can actually deliver on her promises, not someone with little experience who rides on his father’s name.

Diana Wilhite is a compassionate conservative who shows respect for people with different opinions. Spokane Valley voters elected her to start up the new city. She made sure the budget was balanced and that public safety and good roads were top priorities. She’s been the owner of a small business for 33 years. She’s been active with the United Way and with public schools. She worked hard to protect the aquifer and get sewers in the Valley. She’s worked for affordable energy that’s also good for the environment. She has strong family values, married 40 years with two grandchildren.

That’s just part of her track record. Voters elected and re-elected her to the first Spokane Valley City Council for seven years, and she was also mayor for three years. She served on many important boards: chair of the Spokane Regional Transportation Council; the board of trustees of Inland Power and Light for nine years; the United Way of Spokane County Board for six years; Eastern Washington University’s Business Advisory Committee for nine years, with two years as chair; and Central Valley School District’s Committee on Student Housing.

She served on Spokane County’s Citizen Committee that finally got sewers put into the Valley. She was a 4-H leader for 4 years.

Vote for Diana Wilhite and vote for competency, compassion and respect.
