“We must act decisively and we must act now, to put our defenses in order. If we do not, history will cast its verdict with those terrible, chilling words, ‘Too late.'” Sir Winston Churchill
TOM HARRIS WARD 7
PETE ARMSTRONG WARD 6
“To each there comes in their lifetime a special moment when they are figuratively tapped on the shoulder and offered the chance to do a very special thing, unique to them and fitted to their talents. What a tragedy if that moment finds them unprepared or unqualified for that which could have been their finest hour.” ― Sir Winston Churchill
Tom and Pete are both prepared and qualified in their unique ways to become City Councilmen when elected on May 17th. They will bring decorum and respect, and valuable experience. Tom, brings an enlarged point of view about the business of government. His financial over sight and a commitment to the city will help change the culture of the council. Pete has worked for the city. He knows the players and his successful career will play a big part in his leadership today. Tom Harris runs unopposed. Pete is running against two fine gentlemen. Churchill’s quotation is my preference for two capable guys!
“All I want is compliance with my wishes, after reasonable discussion.” ― Winston Churchill
