I have family, business and social interests that I see are under siege here on Bainbridge and in Kitsap County at large.

The problem comes from self-serving special interests and failed government. We know all too well the corrosive effects of the real and apparent conflicts of interest making our government and laws move in ways hurtful to the people.

There is a bright alternative to this conflict on the ballot, and that’s Bruce Danielson, who is running for for Kitsap Superior Court judge.

Bruce Danielson has blazed a career and a campaign by standing up to the vested interest at the Kitsap County Bar Association and the legal community. He has full-spectrum legal experience and a unique quality as a humble servant.

Do not allow this election to be bought by special interests. His opponent, Jeannette Dalton, has self-financed a campaign with more than $90,000.

If a candidate can’t run her campaign with grass-roots support, hard work and small contributions, why should anyone believe her pocketbook would qualify her for the office?

I made a short documentary on Bruce Danielson. You can view it at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7tgy0I2jGjc.

Please meet Bruce and vote for him. We deserve an truly independent and principled judge.

Vote Danielson.
