Send Marilyn Back to Work FOR Us!
"When I was in office, we had a budget that balanced and no new taxes. We put money into the $750 million rainy day fund. We paid of all our debts, with no bailouts by the Feds. Send ME back to do it right!"

Thank you everyone!! The campaign was clean, fun and loaded with great people.
We gave the voters a choice in position 1. We are all winners for getting involved. While I was not elected, I (we) all feel great about the energy and passion we put forth to keep our citizens informed and represented. We can all be proud of our efforts and wish the best to the newly elected!

Quote by Marilyn at a Farm Bureau meeting in Olympia in 1993 on why she is a Democrat:
"It was the Democrats (under FDR) that built the Grand Coulee Dam (during the great depression). The Republicans voted against it twice. If I had to sit around and wait for Spokane private power to electrify rural Washington,I'd still be milking cows by hand.
Thank you Washington Rural Electric Cooperative, (the farm is a charter member of Ohop Mutual Light), and thank you President Roosevelt for your long term investment in Washington Agriculture and Washington economy. We are ONE Washington."
"Dimension and experience are a good thing. Marilyn remembers the Depression, Hoovervilles, FDR, WPA, WWII, and the New Deal. She was only a child, but these things leave a lasting impression. There are times when it is crucial leadership does the right thing. We need Marilyn to help make sure that happens."
