Bardin has the experience to serve on City Council

I care about Olympia’s governance. The Olympia City Council needs informed and experienced leaders on the City Council. That is why I am supporting Judy Bardin for the Olympia City Council.

Judy has the time to diligently attend meetings and study the issues that effect our community. Judy is articulate and will ask questions of city staff; she will not rubber stamp the city staff agenda time after time, as so many in the City Council do.

She will not be a door mat when the staff seeks to inflate their own jobs or scope of work, she will ask the right questions. It is not easy to stand up and ask the right questions. It takes courage. It takes articulation, it takes experience. Thank you, Judy Bardin, for your service to our Olympia community.
