Why I Am Voting For Esther Helton

  • Saturday, October 22, 2016
I retired from the Tennessee Department of Labor and Workforce Development, with 37 years of state service in 2015. I graduated from East Ridge High School in 1969 and raised my son in this community. I am proud to be from East Ridge. Several months ago, I decided to learn more about East Ridge leadership by attending the City Council meetings.

At the meetings, I met Esther Helton.
I was immediately impressed with her friendly demeanor and positive attitude. While talking with her, I discovered her strong desire to see our community prosper. Having worked in the healthcare field, she is extremely dedicated to helping people. This is a great quality to have when working in city government as this job involves working closely with our citizens.

Being a woman, I feel it is important to have a female represent us on the City Council.  Esther will listen to our concerns and be accountable for her actions. I was impressed she took time to go door to door seeking votes from East Ridge citizens. She is committed to working with our city manager and ensuring support for our Fire and Police Departments to keep our citizens safe.
 
I ask when you cast your vote for City Council of East Ridge that it be for Esther Helton.
