We have known and admired Pat Heiden for decades, and are pleased those who haven't known her for so long have had an opportunity to get to know her through the election process. The listening, problem solving, collaborative approach we value in Pat is evident to anyone who has rubbed shoulders with her for the first time. She is a good leader and a team player, willing to learn and lead. Her dedication and industry has been witnessed as she attends supervisor meetings and participates in community events throughout our county. We know Pat is especially sensitive to interests and concerns of college students who are major stakeholders in our community. She has included them in her campaign and deserves the student vote.
From our past professional and personal involvement with Pat, we can think of no one better to be a true servant-leader. With early voting underway now is the time to vote for Pat, knowing your vote puts Johnson County government and future direction in good hands.
These are times when our elected officials must listen carefully to learn and act on behalf of all. No one listens better than Pat.
