Vote for Tina Diedrick for Wright County Commissioner!
Why? This is an unusual election year with several commissioners either running for re-election or for new candidates replacing those commissioners that are retiring. Wright County may have a significantly new board next year, unfortunately some with no or very little public government experience. That will impact you. District 1 does not have to be a training ground for a new commissioner when we have a very experienced option in Tina Diedrick. Tina can step into the position and be effective from the first day with her previous experience as a four-term Mayor of Norwood Young America, the City Planning Commission, the Community Improvement Group, the Carver County Mental Health Coalition, the City Economic Committee and the Minnesota Excellence in Public Service Alumni. She has interacted on many occasions with the Carver County Commissioners in her duty as Mayor. Tina has also appeared before the Minnesota Legislature and the Federal Government on issues important to people she represented. Tina Diedrick has the experience to step into the position of District 1 as Commissioner and be effective from her first day for you
After listening to nearly all of the candidates speak, I believe Wright County District 1 has an opportunity to elect a new highly qualified and experienced candidate to replace retiring Commissioner Christine Husom, a long- standing Wright County Commissioner. Tina has managerial experience, program experience, personnel experience, experience in dealing with problems and opportunities and her mayoral experience. Tina Diedrick now lives in the Annandale Lakes area. Vote for Tina Diedrick for Wright County Commissioner. She will be able to effectively represent you from her first day in office as your new County Commissioner.
