Woodward has my vote for Idaho state senator

Over the past 15 years, I have seen what kind of person Jim Woodward is, and what he stands for. The same for his opponent.

I have been neighbors to, and spoken with, both men. It is clear to me that Jim Woodward is the only qualified choice. From discussions, listening at town halls and reading his updates, I see that Jim gets the big picture. He works tirelessly for us on priorities that need action to make our lives better. This year, it included working to maintain adequate budgeting for necessary state services amid recent budget cuts.

Jim's opponent, on the other hand, seems to work mainly on "culture war" issues that he personally cares about furthering. For me, that's not enough to be our Idaho state senator. 

Jim Woodward has earned my vote. Take a look; he has probably earned yours, too.
