KEN HENDERSON ENDORSEMENT

Harriet Spanel announced today that she is endorsing Ken Henderson in the race for the 40th District Senate seat.

Spanel indicates that she has been friends with Ken Henderson for many years, respects him and knows that he will represent the 40th District well. She cites his years of experience and service to our communities which illustrate his commitment to act on the issues of importance to the district.

"Ken's views on many issues are similar to mine and I appreciate his willingness to listen and his follow through", Spanel stated.

Spanel also remarked that the 40th District is fortunate to have good candidates who took the risk and stepped up to run. In particular, she notes that Ken Henderson and Kevin Ranker have shown that they have the ability to run strong campaigns and would serve the district well.

"I encouraged both to run when they expressed an interest to me last spring. Their styles are different and I respect them both.”
