Attacks on state representative unfounded

For several weeks we have received fliers in the mail almost daily about 62nd District state Rep. Sam Yingling.

Between the fliers and the television ads, someone is spending an impressive amount of money to create a negative image of my representative. It can't be someone that actually lives in the district and is represented by Rep. Yingling.

I have contacted him often to share my opinion on issues before the General Assembly. He doesn't respond two months later with a catch all form letter. He responds right away with a short note about the issue.

I see him all the time at various events around the community. He is one of the most approachable and service-oriented representatives we've had in the 62nd.

Whoever is financing this negative campaign does not know our representative and should find a worthy charity to spend their money on instead.
