RE-ELECT
Mary Pearl Compton
For House Of Delegates
Because I care about Monroe and Summers Countians,
I have continued my fight for jobs through economic development.
Punch No. 24 on Ballot
During this past session of the legislature, I fought for a long term
plan to build and expand West Virginia's infrastructure- water service,
sewage treatment, and commercial/industrial site development. The
battle ended with the passage of an infrastructure plan which dedicated
part of the current severance tax on coal, oil and gas to finance these
projects. I will continue my fight for economic development.
Paid for by the Committee to elect Mary Pearl Compton, J. W. Lamw, Treas.
