Fellow Democrats,
I have known Marlene Pearce for a number of years. She is sincere, intelligent, cares deeply for Pinal County and is running for supervisor as an INDEPENDENT.
She is experienced, has tenacity and will work hard for the residents of District 4.
As a life-long DEMOCRAT having spent 24 years as a state senator and 12 years as a Pinal County supervisor, I am asking you to please seriously consider voting for Marlene on Nov. 3rd. I could use her help.
Thank you.
Pete Rios is Pinal County supervisor in District 1 and vice chairman of the board.
