In the upcoming Baker County commissioner race, it is vitally important that we elect the one candidate with the most experience. With having served 20 years in Baker County government (12 years on the Baker County Planning Commission and eight years as the Baker County Chairman), I do know what it takes to be a good commissioner.

Curtis Martin has worked endlessly, prior to entering this race, for the citizens of all of Baker County and not just those of special interest groups. We have worked together for over 10 years in agriculture, forest management, Bureau of Land Management, and water issues, as they relate to Baker County. He has years of experience and expertise in working directly with state and federal agencies on the vital issues facing our county. Curtis is the most qualified candidate running for this position as a Baker County commissioner. More than ever, we need a person who has been doing the hard work needed to get things done.

Martin understands the need to defend the rights of our county by using history, facts, and laws to defend these rights along with defending us from the overreach of these government agencies. Please join me in voting for Curtis Martin for Baker County commissioner.
