Sherry Erickson, a licensed engineer with an MBA, embodies the ideal qualities for public utility commissioner: technical expertise, drive, and integrity. 

With a background in engineering and business, utility consulting experience, and community dedication, she is well-prepared to address affordability, environmental stewardship, and customer service. 

The utility industry is evolving with technological advancements and sophisticated customer demands. My 22 years in this field have shown me the need for intelligent, engaged decision-makers. 

Sherry Erickson is the only candidate equipped to provide leadership during this transitional period. She is the most qualified candidate for this important role. Vote for Sherry Erickson.
