I need to read the passage for me to be able to help you
Citizens of DePaul, I come to you the day before our mayoral election in support of
Edward Slansky. Edward Slansky is not only a good friend of mine but also the
candidate who epitomizes the values that the citizens of DePaul hold dear. He stands
in stark contrast to Craig White, a candidate who doesn’t hold the concerns of DePaul
citizens in his heart. I urge you to vote for Edward Slansky, the better choice for mayor
of DePaul.

First and foremost, Edward Slansky is the better-qualified candidate for the position of
mayor. He served on the DePaul Planning Commission for four years and was a strong
voice in opposing the building of a megastore in DePaul that would have driven several
locally run stores out of business. It was Edward Slansky’s dedication and hard work that
saved our town from being taken over and disrupted by this large retail chain. For the
past four years, Edward Slansky has also been on the DePaul Town Council and has
treated his duties with the highest regard. He understands how politics in DePaul works,
and he is committed to doing what is best for DePaul. In contrast to Edward Slansky and
his vast experience, Craig White has very little expertise that would help him in running
the town. White has never served on any boards or commissions for the city, and he has
held the opposite view from those on the town council on just about every issue. Needless
to say, he is not a man who will work to support the citizens of DePaul.

Citizens of DePaul, if you look at the situation from my perspective, you will see that it is
obvious that Edward Slansky holds DePaul dear to his heart. He will do anything to
preserve its charm, integrity, and soul. Please join me in voting for my friend Edward
Slansky for mayor of DePaul on Tuesday. It will be a decision you will not regret.
