Wilmer embodies integrity, will be great legislator
Is integrity enough of a reason to elect a candidate? I would certainly think it is the base upon which stands the remainder of one's political platform. I cannot think of any candidate that I have known over my many years for whom this more broadly defines than Franke Wilmer.
It has been my pleasure to have worked with Franke for the past two years on the state Human Rights Commission. As the governor's appointed chairman, Franke has led our commission with a well-informed evenhandedness. Preparation requires hours of readings of transcripts and case study. I find that Franke not only is completely familiar with even the broad base of the case but also has explored its width and depth.
Beyond all, is her deep and abiding concern for the humanity of those before our commission. Her integrity would permit no other approach.
Does this translate into a good legislator? I haven't a moment's doubt. Any action on her part will be well reasoned and well studied. Most of all though, her vote will be determined by its effect on both the populace in general and the individual in particular.
Integrity matters. Integrity counts and most of all it is defined in the person of Franke Wilmer.
