Reason for running: "Just want to see some of the things through that I've helped get started, and I hate to stop at this point until they have been completed - things like getting a senior center for Smith Valley, working on the interpretive trail at Wilson Canyon, and solving the Anaconda mine situation, trying to keep Superfund from coming in here. I also represent the county at the Walker River, Walker Lake mediation meetings."
