Letters of support to Janesville Gazette


The following letters of support have been published by the Gazette in the past 2 days.

KUZNACIC, RASHKIN DESERVE YOUR VOTES

"I would like to ask others to vote next week for two very good people whom I have the pleasure to know.
I am very happy to call friends Katie Kuznacic for Rock County Board supervisor and Yuri Rashkin for Janesville City Council. We have been blessed with these two, who look out for the good of all in the area. They have made tough calls when needed and will in the future."

KEVIN BISHOP
Janesville
published on

I can't even say how proud I was to see this particular letter in the Gazette (I had no idea it was coming) because Kevin and I both ran for a seat on the Council two years ago. I came in 3rd and made it, Kevin came in 4th. To have someone in that position write a letter as nice as the one Kevin wrote is incredibly special. Thank you Kevin and I look forward to continuing to do my best for the people of Janesville!

THREE INCUMBENTS DESERVE RE-ELECTION IN JANESVILLE

"On April 6, the citizens of Janesville will have the opportunity to re-elect three council candidates who make up part of our present council.
Tom McDonald, Kathy Voskuil and Yuri Rashkin deserve to be re-elected to serve two more years.
McDonald asks the difficult questions. He holds his own listening sessions so citizens can speak to him on a one-on-one basis.
Voskuil brings great experience and knowledge because of time spent on the plan commission. She has a goal of making the entire city of Janesville a better place in which to live.
Rashkin looks at the big picture. He brings items to the council that need to be discussed in the open, and the public has a chance to be heard - thus democracy takes its course!
The fact that only one other candidate will be on the ballot challenging these three incumbents indicates the people of Janesville, who care about their government and vote on Election Day, are satisfied and pleased with the direction our council is taking us."

BURDETTE ERICKSON
Janesville

I have come to know Burdette over the past couple of years as a person both incredibly dedicated to his neighborhood and to the history of Janesville. A regular visitor to the council meetings, his opinion and support matters very much to me. Also, if you have not seen Burdette's museum of Janesville political history, get in touch and ask for a tour. It's incredible.
