I am endorsing Will Hammerquist for Whitefish’s next state representative this election cycle.

As a new resident of this district, I recently attended a candidate forum in Columbia Falls in which both candidates running for House District 4 were scheduled to speak. I went to this candidate forum to learn a bit about each man running for this seat.

Unfortunately, the only candidate who showed up was Will Hammerquist. Derek Skees, who was confirmed to attend, was nowhere to be seen. Instead of hearing both men speak on local issues, Will Hammerquist was given a short segment to sell himself, and that he did well.

In his timely campaign speech, Will became the most rational, knowledgeable and experienced individual for this important job. I do hope that Mr. Skees decides to attend the next scheduled debate he has confirmed to be at. If he does, I am positive my decision to endorse Will Hammerquist will only be more solidified.
