Political Beacon releases 2012 Municipal Endorsements


The Political Beacon officially endorses the following candidates for public office in the upcoming 2012 Municipal Elections. The Political Beacon endorses these individuals because I believe they are ready and able to serve the citizens of their perspective communities and cities.

I also believe that these candidates have a strong vision to move our communities into progressive status and not the status quo. Being a candidate is about serving and representing the people and having the people at heart. The Political Beacon believes that these endorsed candidates have great character and leadership capabilities to lead their community forward.
