I want to make Bernalillo County an even-better place to live!
Please help support me in this vision!

Dear Friend,

One of my good friends who has known me for almost 30 years, Chris Vigil, a past President of the New Mexico Home Builders Association, sent me a generous campaign contribution last week.

In the envelope with his check was a note that read: "Michael, if we were to try to design the perfect candidate for County Commissioner.... you would be it!"

Having been actively involved in civic and political issues as an Albuquerque City Councilor in the late eighties and as a New Mexico State Senator in the mid-nineties, I have worked hard to put forth common sense ideas while always being an outspoken voice for my district's best interests.

My business and professional background has been especially diverse. I worked my way through college as a professional photographer, spent two years as Public Information Officer for NM State Government, was a licensed Real Estate Broker for 25 years, co-founded and managed a large retail business and now write, design and publish guides and training material for law enforcement, motor vehicle administrators and private industry.

With these qualifications, experience and my drive and determination, I am now running for Bernalillo County Commissioner so that I can fight rising property tax hikes and demand fiscal responsibility. We are unfairly overtaxing our best natural resource, our county residents. We must improve law enforcement, streamline the court system, increase conviction rates and lower inmate recidivism. The inmates at the Metropolitan Detention Center (which costs us $71 million a year to operate) should be working daily to reimburse county residents.

I will fight the anti-business attitude that has evolved over the past decade; especially the out-of- control Water Authority that has engaged in a reckless pattern of back door anti-development maneuvers. I understand the need for quality growth and I strongly support pro-business policies!

Together we can make government more accountable and halt our ever-increasing property taxes. With your financial support now, we can and will win this election on June 3rd and move our county forward! Please write your contribution check today for $500, $250, $100 or even $50 to “Committee to Elect Michael Wiener - County Commissioner” and send it to:

Michael C. Wiener
13247 Morning Mist Ave. NE
Albuquerque, NM 87111

Your support is urgently needed NOW to help us reach our goal and pay for our printings, mailings, signs and radio messages.

Thank you for standing by me! I am grateful for your friendship and financial support.

Sincerely,
MICHAEL C. WIENER

P.S.: It is crucial that we raise $50,000 so that our message can be heard loud and clear by the 160,000 residents of District 4....and I’m hoping I can count on your financial support now!
