An Invitation To Meet Mike Zinkin--Tue May 4 at 6:30PM

We were asked if we would post this, and certainly agreed to do so. Perhaps those voters that have not decided who is the best candidate, and those detractors of Mike Zinkin that heard rumors or innuendos might want to stop and say hello, courtesy of Guiliana. We truly believe if you meet Mike, you'll vote for Mike.

Here is her invite.

Hello friends in Oro Valley,
We have an election coming up, and I've decided to try to be informed and participate beyond just voting.
I'm planning on hosting a short evening get together with Mike Zinkin. This would be a great opportunity to ask questions and find out where one of our candidates really stands on issues that may be important to you. I know I want my vote to count, and for my choice to be an informed one.


Would you consider joining me at my home next week, Tuesday May 4th, at 6:30PM, for a glass of wine or tea and some Q and A?


Please RSVP, and feel free to invite any one you think might be interested.


Thanks - and hope you can make it!

Five Very Good Reasons To Vote For Mike Zinkin As Oro Valley Mayor

For those friends and neighbors that have not yet voted, please consider the following five reasons to vote for Mike Zinkin.

Additionally, we hope you'll see fit to cast only one vote for town council----that would be Matt Rabb.

Why you should vote for Mike Zinkin:

EXPERIENCE Only Mike has the background and experience to lead us. Mike served the community as a volunteer on The Development Review Board. He took and graduated twice from the Citizen's Planning Institute. He served on other committees and task forces.

His competitor has no resume whatsoever as it concerns Oro Valley government.

KNOWLEDGE
Mike has so much more knowledge about the issues that will confront the new mayor. Mike knows that you don't balance a budget by dipping into your contingency fund.

His competitor takes the position that you do just that: You need money; take it from the contingency fund and worry about it next time.

TIME TO SERVE Mike is retired and can spend whatever time is necessary to do the job the people of Oro Valley want and need.

His competitor has a full time dental practice. Regardless of what he may say, his time will be split on two important endeavors.

DEBATES Mike asked on at least three occasions to debate the other candidate. His request fell on deaf ears. Why? We think it's because Mike would allow the people to see how much knowledge he has; how much experience he has, and how much time he has to serve.

His competitor comes up short on all three criteria.

ENDORSEMENTS Mike has endorsements from the citizens of Oro Valley. Mike will be beholden to only the citizens, and NO Special Interest Group.

His competitor is proud to mail out "glitzy" postcards showing all his endorsements----The OV Police Union, The North TUCSON Firefighter union, North PIMA Chamber of Commerce, TUCSON Chamber of Commerce, TUCSON Assoc. of Realtors, and Southern AZ Homebuilders Assoc.

Notice the names. Other than the police union, not one entity is in Oro Valley. Their interests are not our interests; that's for sure.

Notice one more thing:

In the past year, every single one of these groups addressed the Oro Valley Council concerning a self-serving request, that would not serve the best interests of the overwhelming majority of homeowners.

PLEASE----Do what's best for the people of Oro Valley.
VOTE FOR MIKE ZINKIN & ONLY MATT RABB.

One last thing--- Please pass this message on to all your friends & neighbors. We hope to reach every Oro Valley voter.
