“What I love about Emma is that she doesn’t view her role as jamming her opinion into each discussion. She takes a collaborative approach to local politics. When other candidates are asked about issues they often reply from an emotional state, whereas Emma comes fully prepared with facts, figures, research, and results from community outreach. Emma is as a mom, business owner, and activist, she is the candidate I support on the city council.”
