Candidate already costing taxpayers

Published 3:11 pm Wednesday, April 4, 2012

Jay Inslee is not even in office, yet he’ll end up costing Washington taxpayers a hefty $700,000 for a “special election.” The funds will come from an already “unbalanced state budget.” Instead of fulfilling his elected obligation as Washington state’s 1st District congressman, Mr. Inslee abdicated his responsibilities and now wants to be governor.

It appears his self-serving ambition lacks credibility. Our state desperately needs a fiscally conservative individual capable of leadership, and it’s safe to say Mr. Inslee is definitely not that person.
