There is an election in Aberdeen on Nov. 8, and I'm supporting Patrick McGrady, because he gets it. He understands that holding elected office is about serving the people, not about making yourself look good.
After talking with Patrick awhile, I believe that he isn't running for mayor to make friends, but to get things done for our community. He speaks in simple terms, explains his positions well, and really cares about the people, not about schmoozing with political cronies. His business experience makes him the best candidate in the race.
Patrick wants to make Aberdeen more affordable for everybody by reducing the water bills and property taxes. On election day this year, don't vote for a politician, vote for Patrick, the people's candidate.
