To the Editor:

I strongly support Mark Webb for Grant County judge because of: his fiscal responsibility (much needed in our county), extensive background and work in our community, practical understanding and ongoing work with both county and the state organizations and leaders, and, especially, his ability to work with and find consensus among a diverse group of people as shown in his leadership of the Blue Mountains Forest Partners.

I am impressed with his honesty, intelligence, ability to consider widely varied opinions, and work ethics. Vote for Mark Webb!
