First, I absolutely support the senior property tax exemption. I would oppose any attempt to repeal or change it. Second, I voted for a special election because I heard from many people who said they wanted the democratic process to work. I heard from many that they had voted for change when they voted for Greg Fisk and that change was not represented in the current situation. I also heard that 10 months was too long to wait for an election. For those reasons and those reasons only did I vote for a special election. I also want to make clear that while Kim Metcalfe supports my campaign, she does not speak for it. Her comments are hers and hers alone.
