Dear Editor,
As a resident of Great Bend, I am writing to offer my wholehearted support for Erika Julian, candidate for the 4th Ward City Council. I believe that she possess the character, dedication and common-sense approach needed to make a difference in our community and represent the voices of those who live in her district.
While working with Erika, I have witnessed her passion for helping others in our community, using her exceptional ability to listen and advocate for those who put their trust in her. I encourage those in her district to experience first-hand the dedication and drive she has for serving others and to vote for her on Tuesday April 1st.
