MaryAnn McKissick: Lor’s history of activism would benefit the county

Highly competent, professionally equipped supervisor district 2 candidate Lee Lor exemplifies integrity and action. Lor brings 15 years of hands-on experience in administrative efficiency, balancing budgets and transparent accountability. Lor’s multi-lingual abilities have allowed her to bridge cultures and medical gaps while serving as a member of the Mercy Medical Center Community Board.

Lor rounds out her dedication to Merced County residents with decades of civic and social justice activities. She was a founding board member of the Merced Organizing Project, a graduate of the American Leadership Forum and volunteer for many non-profit organizations. She and Ber Lor have been married 17 years; Lee is a mother of four.

Lee Lor’s vision for Merced District 2 includes devising a thriving future with safe family neighborhoods, and fostering efficient development with Merced County driving the economic engine.

I ask you to join me on June 7, in voting for Lee Lor District 2 supervisor.

MaryAnn McKissick, Merced
