Thank you FOR taking an interest in this primary election.

Remember its you…A REGISTERED VOTER WHO has the responsibility to nominate your party’s candidates.

I’m Gene Zarwell   a Republican asking for your nomination to campaign for Comptroller.

 I‘VE RUN BEFORE AND i NEED YOUR VOTE TO WIN.

I seek your nomination for Comptroller.  

Who AM i?  What have i done?

yOU ask.

 i’M Gene Zarwell… a businessman…

military Officer…

Government employee… politician… and  media expert.

 I bring legitimacy… credibility… accountability… and responsibility… to you.

 Something I live by at great cost to me in some circles.

 At 17 I was Treasurer of my high school.

 Later… a government contractor and auditor among other things.

 I will bring innovative thinking and tight controls on revenue uses as I have in the past. 

 Gene Zarwell… that’s me…managed a major attraction at New York’s 1965 World’s Fair increasing profits for NYC by $82 million  (When A miilion dollars was worth that).

In 1990…I created a market in Russia for computer applications with approval from three U.S. Departments’ – Commerce – State – and Defense.

 11 months and five days later, there was no Soviet Union – a result of information exchange.

 On or about 11 years ago - a little lawyer speak there- I chaired a Marketing committee for the USS Annapolis…  ACTVITIES.

 In 1996…My last minute strategies for the Atlanta COMMITTEE FOR Olympic GAMES turned their loss into a profit in the last week of the Centennial Competitions.

 My corporate audits… in the ‘70s… …increased profits and SUSTAINED earnings by 65% for my clients.

 My audits of government contractors created profits for them that resulted in savings for the government through more efficient and effective use of assets and resources. 

 So, why vote for gene zarwell?

 Why not?

He meets all the qualifications by law.

he's neither a career politician nor bureaucrat… not an attorney… and not part of the current administration.

Gene Zarwell …
that’s me… is a Republican who stands for legitimacy… credibility… accountability… and responsibility… and lives his life that way.

As Comptroller of the Treasury I will offer exceptional, seasoned… worldly advice to Governor Erlich and Lt. Gov. Steele on financial matters from tax collection to budgeting… on spending to return… and…ON generating REVENUES FROM legitmate activites TO REDUCE TAXPAYER LIABILITY.

My experience comes not from one system but from several.

 I lived and worked in 13 cities in 9 states, and in 25 countries over a MULtiple career of …PRIVATE SECTOR …PUBLIC SECTOR… …military and …POLITICAL. 

 i AM ALSO A commercial pilot.

“iT TRAINS YOU TO THINK FORWARD”.

 I’ve learned from out-of-the-box situations “how TO” resolve tough REVENUE problems.

 Maryland is approaching a $20 Billion budget next year and we’re starting in arears. 

 yOU NEED gENE zARWELL TO HELP BUILD A BETTER BOTTOM LINE.

 a BETTER BOTTOM LINE FOR mARYLAND…

 FOR BUSINESS…

 FOR YOU.
