Pulkrabek understands rural issues

I am glad to see that Lonny Pulkrabek is running for the Iowa House. Lonny grew up working on farms and knows about the hard work done in rural areas. He has walked beans, baled hay, and detasseled corn. And he understands the importance of a strong farm economy and the growth in small businesses.
Of course most people know that Lonny has spent the last 15 years working as the sheriff of Johnson County. During that time he worked with the Board of Supervisors to strengthen the patrol division to put more officers on rural roads. He felt it was very important that people in the country felt just as safe as the folks in cities and towns.
Rural residents who have met Lonny will tell you he is the person we need in Des Moines. Please vote for him on November 3 if you live in Iowa House District 73.
