Due to my inability to commit to the dedication it would take to represent the city in possible, potential litigation that may arise of events that has transpired in the last few months, I would like to withdraw my name from a write-in campaign and ask those of you who would have supported me in my bid for mayor to consider supporting Ron Hunter.

Ron Hunter is an excellent communicator and as a journalist, he knows how to ask the hard questions.
