In just a few weeks, we will be going to the polls in untold numbers to perform our civic duty. This is a very crucial and pivotal election this term. November 5, 2024, we must vote for the best candidate who closely aligns with our innate values. At this time, many of our candidate’s behavior is on full display for all to see. So, who do we vote for? Well, allow me to introduce you to one candidate who is running for the position of Board of Commissioner in District 6. Her name is Maritza Gomez.
I don’t know about you but there are certain qualities that I admire in those candidates who are vying for a position in our government; be it, local, state or federal. I want someone who is a team player: one who can sit down together with the opposition and solve the issues and concerns of one’s constituency without being contemptible. One who is emotionally mature enough to engage without being ornery and disrespectful. One who is a critical thinker. Yes, someone who is intellectually disciplined and skillful at evaluating the many problems he/she will encounter on a daily basis. I have overheard many conversations concerning our upcoming elections and I discern that many of us are tired of the present political climate; and we want nothing more than to seat someone for the position of Board of Commissioner (in District 6) who shares our values and wants to serve “we the people” and not themselves.
Well, let’s take a closer look at Maritza Gomez to serve us. She is a first-generation Cuban American. She will ensure that your rights are protected at the local level from over-burdensome taxes and that your property rights are protected by a well-funded and accountable sheriff’s department. She will vote to cut waste from the county budget and to lower taxes, to incentivize business growth and investment. She is a fighter, and this is what we need in our local government. She will relentlessly advocate for parents, children, and taxpayers. She will be fiercely dedicated to defending your interest and not her own. Wow…wouldn’t this be refreshing! Well, this can’t happen unless you vote for her! On November 5, 2024, when you go to the polls and you see her name…consider voting for her; give her a chance, you won’t regret it!

I like her, she’s got my vote
She sounds good to me.
If you are voting early or on election day, Maritza Gomez MUST BE YOUR CHOICE. Aside from her many correct policy positions, Guilford County needs a Conservative on the county board. Right now the board is overloaded with ‘raise taxes and spend more money’ democrats. Just look at the democrats push to raise taxes…again. Three times taxpayers is Guilford have refused the democrats attempt to raise taxes. Yet, for a 4th time the ‘we want more money’ Guilford county democrat commissioners are pushing for a tax hike. MARITZA GOMEZ WILL FIGHT TO HAVE THE COUNTY LIVE WITHIN THEIR MEANS…NOT JUST RAISE TAXES.
The county got over $100 Million dollars of federal Covid money. Where did all that money go? We know that some of the money was spent to hire MORE DEI employees. Is that what you want? MARITZA GOMEZ WILL FIGHT AGAINST WASTEFUL SPENDING.
A state judge said the Guilford Board illegally spent taxpayer money to promote the recently passed $3 BILLION bond for schools. This includes $1.7 BILLION plus more than $1 Billion in interest. Interesting point… Bond money must be spent within 10 years and repaid within 20 years. So a child born TODAY, will STILL BE PAYING OFF THIS DEBT WHEN THEY ARE 30 YEARS OLD AND HAVE KIDS OF THEIR OWN. With MARITZA GOMEZ on the county board, she will provide conservative common sense and financial expertise when dealing with ALL financial issues.
Do you remember the 30% INCREASE IN YOUR PROPERTY TAXES? I told Chairman Alston that Guilford County had the HIGHEST PERCENTAGE PROPERTY TAX INCREASE IN THE COUNTRY. He said no, it was the SECOND HIGHEST! MARITZA GOMEZ will hold the county responsible for properly spending taxpayer money for needed services.
The Board is crying poor but also GAVE THEMSELVES A 50% PAY RAISE a few years ago. At the same time, they gave first responders a meager 2% to 3% raise. They took care of themselves at the expense of taxpayers and first responders. MARITZA GOMEZ will bring financial sanity to the county commissioners and government.
If you are tired of paying MORE AND MORE TAXES; IF YOU ARE TIRED OF SEEING YOUR TAXES BEING SPENT ON ‘PET PROJECTS’ OR JUST PLAIN WASTED…VOTE FOR MARITZA GOMEZ.
BRING COMPETENCE AND FINANCIAL EXPERTISE TO GUILFORD COUNTY. VOTE FOR MARITZA GOMEZ.
Sounds like we need many more folks like her on the school board!
Will she be a doormat for the developers that align with Skip? The commissioners are tone deaf to the community concerns and rarely listen. They typically vote for in favor for any and all development in town typically because folks like Cooper James and Carroll contribute to their campaigns. So I’m asking will this candidate stand up to Skip and the developers that run this town…
