One name to remember when voting this fall is Lee Bridges, who is running for House District 92, which includes Condon, Seeley Lake, Greenough, Potomac, Bonner, East Missoula and surrounding areas.
I first met Lee 25 years ago when I was a building inspector checking the electrical and heating system that Lee had installed in her shop. That’s right, she did all of the work herself, to a level of perfection and craftsmanship that I had rarely seen before or since. Actually, I was so amazed that a novice was so good at this trade, that I encouraged her to contact the union and consider it as a profession. She did exactly that, became the first female in the Montana Sheet Metal Workers Union, has worked in the sheet metal trade ever since, and now works in her own shop.
I can attest that Lee has attention to detail, listens and gets the facts before making a decision and is resourceful and meticulous. She has been a representative of various community groups for many years, so she understands that there are always many sides to an issue and that all voices deserve consideration.
Vote for Lee Bridges so we can have a representative who lives in our community and will work for everyone in our community. Lee understands that what happens in Helena affects small communities like ours.
