    • Your candidate has been part of this community for many years, working tirelessly to make it a better place.

    • Intro: 
    • If you have decided to pick “clean and healthy water” as the winning ballot?  Ask candidates if they have attended a Suwannee River Water Management District meeting, or a Columbia Board of County Commission meeting, or Baker, Union, Bradford, or Alachua Board of County Commission meeting. Your candidate may be familiar with their own county meetings, but Merrillee is familiar with them all and has attended them all.  I want you to know that Merrillee has already been working for you for years.  Allow me to introduce you to Merrillee Malwitz-Jipson, candidate for District 10 State House of Representatives.
