Area resident Rick Vermeers believes Bob Runnells’ knowledge of civic processes will be an asset on the Charter Review Commission
Editor’s note: Opinions expressed in this letter to the editor are those of the author alone and may not reflect the editorial position of ClarkCountyToday.com
I fully endorse Bob Runnells as the Charter Review Commission Candidate in District 2, Position 2.

Bob has a history of being an innovative problem solver. We need people like Bob, who have the skills, knowledge, and ability to analyze current practices and policies and to champion efficiency in our county government.
For three years, Bob Runnells has brought inquisitiveness, ideas for improvement, and professionalism while volunteering at the Clark County election office. He has had success advocating for and against issues in Olympia through committee testimony, letter writing and calling, and legislative meetings. Bills he has drafted have been adopted by legislative sponsors and filed. His knowledge of civic processes will be an asset on the Review Commission.
