Yes: clean campaigns (“Public financing for clean campaigns,” Star-Advertiser, Island Voices, April 19). Better government for a fraction of the cost. Public financing for clean campaigns is the goal all voters can support. Senate Bill 1543 is supported by our former governors and mayors. They know the cost of campaigning in time, money and energy.
