Among the many candidates for lieutenant governor, one is head and shoulders above the rest — Clark County native Denny Heck.

Denny’s successful career as a businessman and a public servant uniquely qualify him for this important statewide office. He has served with distinction as a state representative from Southwest Washington, as the chief of staff to Gov. Booth Gardner, and most recently as the U.S. representative from Washington’s 10th Congressional District.

The field is crowded, but the choice is clear. Denny Heck should be our next lieutenant governor.
