Taxpayers’ champion It's getting down to the wire for this election and we would like to encourage everyone to vote for Richard Ranzau.

The clear choice Richard Ranzau is the clear choice for re-election to the Sedgwick County Commission. His dedication and work ethic have earned him the respect and trust of the people in District 4. They know he can be trusted to oppose wasteful spending so that hard-earned taxpayer money can go to important projects like the Joint Law Enforcement Training Center and the new Tag Office.
