Linda Kochmar has key qualities for a candidate | Letters

In this day and age, choosing someone to represent us all in any political race is serious business.
Integrity, experience, solid connections with influential people in our state, and knowing how to roll up one’s sleeves and get the job done in front and behind the scenes are all very important qualifications for the success of any position at the state level.
I am strongly endorsing Linda Kochmar because she embodies all of these qualities and more.
Her 35 years of dedicated service to our city in regional committees, community service organizations, and 14 years to city council including deputy mayor twice and mayor in 2010, has given us here in Federal Way impressive results. Linda has received many awards for her achievements, and is highly recognized as an excellent leader in business and government.
She has high integrity with business experience as a nationally certified risk manager, and she has the wisdom of many years of living, loving her community, suffering loss, and raising a large family. She knows how it feels to struggle, but also to overcome. She will fight long and hard for us all in the 30th District for jobs, curbing this state’s regulations which stifle jobs. She is a strong proponent of education reform to truly help our youth succeed in life, and more importantly be people of character and good citizens. Having six grown children and quite a few grandchildren, she cares deeply about the quality and effectiveness of education for our future citizens.
I, for one, know of her long dedication to serving with integrity, and I trust her ability to get in there and win for us, getting any and all her jobs done to the best for all of us. Her many years of service has given her ins to networks and individuals that can benefit the 30th District like no other candidate. She possesses heart and wisdom that come uniquely with years of integrity of living and serving. Please join me in electing Linda Kochmar for position 1 of 30th District in our state election.
Carol Stanley, Federal Way
