Independent, Integrity, Experience, Issue Driven
Vote for Rich Carson
Your "Independent" Candidate
for the 18th Legislative District
Are you tired of elected officials who put party politics before voters and the Constitution? Well, so am I! I have lost faith in the Republican and Democratic parties. Both parties are more concerned about the special interests who are lining their pockets than they are about what their constituents want. Southwest Washington needs a strong and Independent voice!
Speaking of special interests "lining their pockets" -ask my opponents which lobbyists have contributed to their campaigns and how much! I am accepting no special interest money, limiting individual contributions to $100 and will not litter the landscape with political signs. It's time someone ran the type of campaign that the voters really want.
I have only one special interest group and it's you the voters. Ask my opponents What's in your wallet? Or you can look at the webpage.
Anyone following this campaign knows that I take exception with The Columbian re-endorsing Ann Rivers after information coming out about her "guilt by association" with a person who is "shooting out so much garbage" about her opponents using blogs. Interestingly, The Columbian's own poll of some 1,000 people show an overwhelming opinion (65%) believe that "Politicians should be held accountable for who they are friends with or who they associate with. How they choose their friends and associates does reflect on who they are." It would be nice if The Columbian's editor listened to his readers.
The two front runners in this race (a Republican and a Democrat) have raised almost $100,000 for political signs and mail garbage. That is three times the average family wage in Washington. And you think they care about you and your family?
The voter ballots are now in your hands. Make a difference and change the way politics happen in Olympia and in Washington. When the Constitution was signed there were no political parties. There were just citizens who were willing to die to be Independent and those who wanted to take both their ife and their liberty. Which are you?
