Oemichen Asks Voters to Keep Office of State Treasurer

Dear Editor,
Please vote NO on April 3 to eliminate the Office of the State Treasurer. This previously important elected constitutional office has been downgraded by successive Republican and Democratic governors seeking to consolidate control of state government within their own office.  As a result, the State Treasurer’s Office has drawn candidates who arguably do not have relevant financial and management expertise.  However, these are not arguments for eliminating this important statewide elective office.
