Backus has ‘the right stuff’ to be our mayor

Published 5:28 pm Wednesday, October 16, 2013

We all have heard of the term, “the right stuff.” Let’s put it into perspective. I’m talking about the mayor race here in the great city of Auburn. “The right stuff” to lead this city into the future is our own homegrown Nancy Backus.

Nancy has the credentials for continuing street improvements. I heard about the recent debate at the Ave Theater, that she’ll promote putting the lower street speed limits back to where they use to be in our town before the road levy initiative was defeated. This is a sensible beginning when she starts her term as mayor. She is all for hiring 10 more cops for public safety to keep city crime down to a minimum for all citizens.

I’m not going to expound on her financial capabilities. We all know she is capable of using her talents from her education and business background. Let’s focus on her dealing with people and decision making. She is compassionate, she values your concerns, she is a good listener, she doesn’t sway to anyone, she is willing to compromise to fix a problem and she loves this town.

This is why Nancy “has the right stuff” to lead this town ahead into the future. Vote Nancy Backus for nayor.
