Some of you might remember what it stands for, Throw the Hypocritical Rascals Out. It’s time to act on this locally. The empire of Marysville has a great alternative for leadership. We have found the right person for mayor of our city, he is Kelly Wright. How could anyone vote back into office the people that created our problems?

All of us who live north of 100th Street NE were hijacked by the Empire of Marysville (annexed without a vote). Then they put all kinds of taxes on our utilities. We now pay more to live here and get less.  This is unDemocratic, unAmerican and unacceptable. The existing leadership supported this annexation and tax increase — so why would we want to vote them back in?

We just received phony literature in the mail asking us to support these pirates that hijacked and robbed us. The literature claimed a 15 percent drop in crime; but north of 100th Street on 51st Avenue NE crime has increased over 100 percent. Every week we hear of another break-in and robbery. It seems that thieves are attracted to this area ever since the empire took over.

It is obvious that local government is trying to force us off the farm and out of the community.

Let’s all do the right thing and vote for Kelly Wright — for the good of the community and the country.
