Paul McAndrew is a qualified candidate

To the editor:

I received the mail notice of the South Slope Cooperative annual meeting scheduled for June 17. Included with the notice for the first time was a ballot to elect two members to the South Slope Cooperative board of directors.

I was pleased to see the name of Paul McAndrew from the North Liberty area listed as a candidate. I cannot think of a more qualified candidate than McAndrew. He graduated with a law degree with high distinction from the University of Iowa in 1983 and has practiced law in this area representing working people for over 30 years. His main goal is the help South Slope provide quality service to its customers, but he also wants to make sure that members and employees voices are heard by the board of directors.

Please put an X in the box by McAndrew's name, attach your signed sticker to the ballot and mail it before Sunday, June 7.
