Why I Voted for Heather Jackson

Heather,

Hello Eagle Mountain friends and neighbors.  We are almost to election day.  Much has been said and done throughout this campaign season, and this is an election I feel strongly about, so I thought I would take a few minutes to share my thoughts on our Mayor's race. I voted early, and I voted for Heather Jackson.  I hope you take a few minutes to read the attached file to find out why. If you agree with me, please send it to all of YOUR Eagle Mountain friends and neighbors so we can spread the word. If you do not agree with me, my intention was not to offend, just delete it and accept my apologies for bothering you!  Either way, get out and vote on November 3!
