A proven leader withexcellent skills

I believe that Eron Berg is an outstanding candidate to represent us in the 10th Legislative District, because he has a background of experience in working with people. Evidence of his ability to work with people is shown by his leadership as the mayor of La Conner. He convinced La Conner and Fire District 13 to work together to build a modern $850,000 fire station.

He was selected as chairman of the Skagit Council of Governments, elected as a planning commissioner, a council member, and now mayor.

He has proven that he has excellent skills in working and negotiating issues with groups of people. Eron has a directness and enthusiasm that is refreshing. He will be a welcome addition to the Legislature as he is committed to represent our district with experience and knowledge. I believe that Eron will always be in touch with his constituents as to their views and their needs.

And most importantly Eron has impressed my very conservative husband. Eron is the best candidate for all the right reasons.
