I also learned that while she was living in Denver, she was originally from Southwest Colorado and planning to return to her roots. Since then, we have been neighbors, friends and colleagues sharing our commitment to social justice, community development and rural policy.

This is what Marsha Porter-Norton is committing to in her campaign for La Plata County commissioner. She has a holistic approach to caring about the social, economic, psychological, physical and financial health of our community. I will cast my vote for Marsha and hope you consider doing the same.
