Voters can count on Favede to do her job if elected

When I think about the election, and who will have my back and address my concerns, I know I can count on Commissioner Ginny Favede when she becomes our next state representative. There has been a lot of talk lately from Andy Thompson’s camp trying to criticize Favede’s attendance record.

Well two years ago when I and my fellow Barnesville friends and neighbors had concerns about the proposed EnerGreen site, and the environmental concerns with it, Favede was present and listened to our concerns. Thompson was nowhere to be found.

We know economic development is important to our area, and we aren’t against bringing more oil, gas, and coal jobs to the region. In fact, Favede is working hard to make sure Belmont County becomes the next site for PTT Global’s $5.7billion ethane cracker plant. The facility could lead to thousands of construction jobs and hundreds of permanent positions.

Favede knows that we have good people here, and a dedicated skilled workforce. We need to make sure the people in eastern Ohio have the opportunities. As our representative, Favede will make sure we have the opportunities our communities deserve.

So, join me in voting for Ginny Favede this November. I believe her actions speak louder than Thompson’s words.
