‘Fed up’ with Corey Stewart

I’m a life-long Virginian who moved to Prince William County in 2007, when Corey Stewart became chairman of our board of supervisors. As a political independent, I’m fed-up with the misleading campaign rhetoric, empty promises and divisive scare tactics that Corey Stewart – and some other candidates from both major parties – use to try to hide problems with their character, lack of accomplishments or failed leadership.
 
As a result of Chairman Stewart’s failed leadership, Prince William County has the most overcrowded classrooms in all of Virginia, some of the most congested roads in the nation, increasing crime, an inadequate commercial tax base, massive county debt and other major problems. And our problems are getting worse. Stewart has chosen to sacrifice our quality of life to satisfy his own self-interest in election campaign contributions from new home developers and related special interest groups.
 
Details about these and other countywide problems, including the source of our facts, are in “The REAL 2018 State of Prince William County” published on the Citizens Alliance of Prince William website (www.citizensallianceofprincewilliam.org). I founded this nonpartisan organization almost two years ago to fight out-of-control rezoning and new home development, raise awareness of our county’s problems and encourage citizens to begin to fix them by electing new county supervisors in 2019.
 
This satisfies what I feel to be my obligation to expose what I’ve learned during 11 years of experience with Corey Stewart. Please vote on November 6 for the future of your family and Virginia.
