Tom Goetzl (Bellingham) letter sent to 94 people on his email list:

Dear Friends and Neighbors:

I have met and interviewed each of the three Democratic candidates seeking to represent the 2nd District in the U.S. Congress.  For many reasons I can no longer support Rick Larsen.  For too long, I believe he has voted against the interests of his Democratic constituents and in favor of the status quo - on war funding, bailouts of the bankers, so-called bankruptcy "reform," preferring the economic interest of the wealthy over those of working people, on meaningful health care reform, and on and on.

I urge each of you to vote for Larry Kalb for Congress.  As the summary sheet attached to this message reveals, Larry far better represents my positions.  And, I hope he also more closely represents yours as well.  If so, please vote for Larry.  And tell your friends and neighbors to do the same.

Thank you,

Tom Goetzl
