4 WORD ON THE STREET DICK SCORE TRUSTED As a health care provider, I have seen our Democrat controlled legislature roll out a confusing, failing healthcare system that is hurting access for our seniors, children, and families. I trust Dave Baker to get it on track so our loved ones can find the affordable care they need. My husband and I worked with Dave a number of years ago. We learned a lot from Dave and his leadership style. He taught us how patience, listening, and mentoring others is how to be successful in business and in life. Dave would do anything he asked anybody else to do. We couldn't imagine anyone more dedicated and committed to represent all of us in St. Paul. COMMITTED GAYLE MARCUS The success of our students and their teachers has taken second place to an overreaching bureaucracy at the state level. Dave Baker has confidence in our local school boards and staff to decide how we can best serve our unique student population. Dave will use common sense and a balanced approach in managing our education spending. Enough of the red tape! Let's put students first and allow teachers to teach! Dave has lived in and supported this community for nearly 20 years and has demonstrated his ability to bring people together to address the needs of our community. He is a hard working and compassionate husband, father, business owner, and leader. I m with Dave because I can trust him to make the right decisions for district and our state. I m a Democrat and I m with Dave.
