To the Editor:

As a Republican there are two easy votes in June 5th election.

Mike Halliwell is the only true conservative running for Congress and Annette De Modena is the only Republican running for supervisor in the 1st district.

If you believe in smaller government, less taxes and fewer regulations, if you believe in freedom and what our Constitution is suppose to stand for, if you believe it is the free market that allows businesses to grow and thrive and create jobs, then you should cast your vote for these true Republicans who share those beliefs.

Mike Halliwell is no RINO. He is a real Republican and he’s running for Congress and he deservers your vote.

If you live in the 1st supervisor district, the only Republican in that race is Annette De Modena. Unlike some candidates, she has not abandoned her Republican ideals or identity or hidden her party affiliation, because Annette is proud to be a Republican.

In the race for Congress you’ll see a second Republican on the ballot, one who seems to agree with the Democrats on almost every issue. Mike Halliwell is the only Congressional candidate who has stayed true to our Republican ideals.

Join me and cast a vote of conscience on June 5th.
