Gravel mining, unions and who is voting their financial interest.

First Gravel Mining, I am glad to see that high respect is paid to the Russian River Keepers for the great job they have done...

Another way of asking your question, which of our candidates has held elected office before, or heck, even had a real job in the last ten years? (Noreen is the candidate who, you know, worked for a...

since you ask - no, it doesn't seem like you are.
OTH I'm not sure that it's all that relevant. But it's certainly fair to ask.
