Myrna Wachs: Bee endorsed Madueno; Marks was a back-up

Re “Marks is best for the Assembly” (Letters, May 18): The letter writer said The Modesto Bee is endorsing Cindy Marks for Assembly! Actually, The Bee endorsed Virginia Madueno and mentioned Ms. Marks as a “back-up.” I agree with The Bee, Madueno is the best candidate in the race and she is the only one who is truthful, experienced and well equipped to be our Assemblyperson.

Myrna Wachs, Turlock

Editor’s note: With two candidates advancing to the Nov. 8 general election, The Bee endorsed both Virginia Madueno and Cindy Marks for the seat. When the race narrows, The Bee will make a single recommendation.
