Would you vote for some one who makes jokes at patriotism?

Would you vote for some one who said they were for the citizens and taxpayers, and then does everything in their power to go against the citizens?

Would you vote for some one who fought tooth and nail to prevent millions of dollars in revenue and income to Benton County only because it was from a grant, and the grant was Faith Based?

Would you vote for some one who deliberately misled the citizens by using scare tactics to collect signatures on a falsely written petition?

Would you vote for some one who demanded honesty from elected officials, only to turn around and use dishonest means in the same manner?

Would you vote for some one who flip-flops on the real issues of Benton County only because they think they will get more votes?

Would you vote for some one who refuses to support the voice of the taxpayers of Benton County only because they have personal issues with one person?

Would you vote for some one who said they were fighting for your rights and freedoms, and then turns on the issues and takes up belittling those who speak up?

Would you vote for some one who makes a public statement about a private citizen diagnosing them with a severe mental illness, when they have no training, education, or background in the mental health field?

Would you vote for some one who refuses to admit that they believe in God?

Would you vote for some one who supports crime in the elected offices of Benton County?

Would you vote for some one who is changing who they are, just to get your vote?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, Please cast your vote for Mary Benton for Commissioner of the Sixth District.

If you answered NO to any of these questions, vote NO to Mary Benton for Commissioner of the Sixth District.

Mary Benton turned her back on the citizens of Benton County. Don’t we have enough of that in office today? Mary Benton Compares the term patriot, to the term Race Card used in the O.J. Simpson trial.

Mary Benton has belittled the families of every American veteran by making fun of people who declare to be patriotic.

VOTE NO TO MARY BENTON FOR 6^TH DISTRICT COMMISSIONER
