The primary election season is almost over. I am concerned about the possibility of another four years of having a public service commissioner who puts her own personal agenda ahead of the comfort and quality of the lives of our citizens and the overall economy of Montana. I have reduced the temperature in my house, turned the lights off and done many things to keep my cost under control. My power bill continues to go up. As energy costs continue to escalate, our businesses, and their workforce are jeopardized.
Bob Lake has represented us very well in the legislature. I have watched and listened to the candidates running for the Public Service Commission. I believe that Bob Lake is the person that I trust to represent me against the power company and get my power bill back down to a workable level.
