STAY CONNECTED

Help spread the word across the state.

We have been sending out packets of campaign literature and buttons to some outer state supporters. If you are interested in receiving a packet to share in your community with friends, family and neighbors email the volunteer link at kenpentel.org and specify the amount of materials you’d like and provide your address and contact information.

As mentioned in earlier campaign updates, your pressure on the media is essential. Thanks to all of the supporters who have made calls, written Letters to the Editor and educated the media on including all candidates on the ballot. Keep up the pressure through November 2^nd!

YES WE CAN!
