Lonnell Mathews Gets 96%
of His Contributions
from Outside District 1


To the Editor:

Kenneth Jakes' campaign contributions from outside District 1 total $0. His District 1 contributions total $8,390.

Ken Jakes will represent District 1 with no outside political obligations. Ken refuses to accept donations from special interest groups or outside businessmen, in spite of the fact that his total campaign budget was limited. Due to contributions from PACs and people outside of District 1, Lonnell Matthew’s campaign budget was five times larger than Ken’s.

Lonnell Matthew's campaign contributions from outside District 1 total $48,050. His District 1 contributions total $2200.

Lonnell Matthews has received 96% of his campaign contributions from special interest groups and individuals outside District 1. His campaign is being promoted by interests outside of our District 1 neighborhoods. In the past eight years our needs have been sadly ignored and our tax dollars have gone largely to outside areas.

WHICH CANDIDATE DO YOU THINK WILL BETTER SERVE THE NEEDS OF DISTRICT 1?

DON’T LET OUR DISTRICT BE BOUGHT!!

Ken Jakes has voiced and will continue to voice our wishes and needs and fight for us. He has the knowledge necessary to insure that we are treated fairly by Metro Codes and Zoning. He will fight for what is right.

Ken Jakes’ wife, daughter, and parents are a part of District 1. He will fight for them and he will fight for you! He is here for you and asks you to please support him and give him the chance to serve your needs.

SAVE OUR COMMUNITY!
MAKE A DIFFERENCE!

Early voting results show a very close race. Every vote counts. We need your support. Your vote will make a difference!

REMEMBER SEPTEMBER 11--KENNETH JAKES DISTRICT 1 COUNCIL.
