Politics, politics!

I'm tired of listening to the sniping, pettiness and the negativism that envelops this election.

Fortunately for me, my state representative is Sid Mathias (District 53). If you are looking for honesty and integrity in public office, look no more. Sid Mathias is your man.

His public service record and experience have given him the confidence and assurance to represent his constituents' interest and implement bipartisan projects successfully.

Upon second thought, if Sid Mathias is in Springfield, and there must surely be some others like him, then there is "hope" for better days to come!

Don't forget to vote!
