Go to Washington Courts and do a name search for Geof Simpson (his middle name is Harrison.) You will be shocked at how many entries come up, especially for a servant of "the people"!

Let's make sure the record is as clear as you claim it to be.

The contribution from Andrew Franz was $100 and it was given March 5th, 2008. Mr. Franz was not "caught" in Colorado until May 14, 2008 - TWO MONTHS LATER.

Mark did NOTHING WRONG. While Mr. Simpson's egregious legal challenges are well documented in the media. In fact, his most recent arrest was April 27, 2008 BEFORE Mr. Franz was arrested. Quite Interesting. http://soundpolitics.com/Si...

So let's just be clear on the matter.

Thank you David Auburn for making the comment I wanted to make. I am so frustrated with this political environment where information and statements are twisted in a way that misrepresents the people who make them. I'm tired of this political season but I am NOT tired of working for Mark Hargrove.

I am not a personal friend of Mark, in fact I met him when I volunteered for his campaign not long after he threw his hat in the ring. He is the most genuine guy I have met in a long time. And his family is impressively rallied around him in a supportive manner that would make any family counselor smile. Fundamentally he’s the kind of guy we always say we want running for political office!

When I received Simpson's flyer accusing Mark of accepting a contribution from a sex offender I was mortified. This is a hostile attack on the campaign of a man who exudes family values. First - if the allegations are indeed true, what kind of resources does Simpson have working for him to investigate all contributors to Mark's campaign? There are 71 - C3 reports, some with 20 or more small donations represented. Simpson is slime if he spends valuable campaign dollars on efforts to smear a good man’s name.

I may be a horrible doorbeller, but I am a good writer, a reasonable parade walker, a fantastic phone bank assistant, and an enthusiastic sign waver...See you Saturday at Covington Costco Mark!
