Tim Lee for TN-55

My name is Timothy Lee and I am running for Tennessee State House of Representatives of the District 55.
Every election year, candidates will tell you that this is the most important election you will ever vote in and I will not tell you any different.  However; I offer you the following explanation for my statement.  In 2010, Tennessee along with the rest of the country will be redistricting and this means for the first time in history Republicans could be redrawing the lines.  This can only be done if we maintain a majority in the house and senate.  These lines not only affect state races but also Tennessee Congressional races.

In 2010, Tennessee will have elected a new governor.  This newly elected governor will be faced with a huge task regarding the state budget, education, jobs and federal mandates expiring.  We need elected officials in office that are of the people and not career politicians.  We need citizen representation that knows what it is like to live within a budget, that understands the sacrifices that the average person must endure in order to receive an education, a person who has had to work more hours for less pay because that was the only job available at the time and a Tennessee citizen that believes that Tennesseans know more about what is best for Tennessee than the federal government.

This is our time in District 55 to take a stance and set precedence for all that comes after us, we will not tolerate our elected officials to strip us of our freedom any longer.  It is time to pay the price at the voting booth.

I ask you to get involved in the campaign to elect your neighbor, Timothy Lee as your next Tennessee House Representative.
