LETTER TO THE EDITOR | I’m thankful for votes, support

Published 6:00 pm Wednesday, November 11, 2015

Editor,

I want to thank the voters for their support in my re-election and I want to acknowledge the enormous effort put forth by my large and faithful army of campaign workers. It was a pleasure to work with so many old friends and new to provide information to the public so that they could make an informed choice.

I believe this campaign was more a referendum on the Whidbey General Hospital and clinics than it was about me personally and I am heartened by the response. We won every precinct except four and we only lost those four by a combined 33 votes. That is a tremendous vote of confidence.

Thank you all and I look forward to working with you to make our Whidbey health system even better.

Georgia Gardner,

District 2 hospital commissioner
