CERTIFIED CANDIDATES

 

The Little Shell Tribal Election Committee has reviewed and certified the following candidates for the vacant At-Large Tribal Councilmember Position:

 

Alisa Herodes

 

Gregory Vogel

 

Alisa Herodes

My name is Alisa Herodes, am a native Montanan and am excited to be running for tribal council. I am self-employed and I have owned my own cabinetry and design business since 2009. My ability to run my own business single-handedly makes me an ideal candidate for you. I am fully vested in the Little Shell Tribe and have served on Powwow Committee, Election Committee and Maamawi Group. I place the tribe ahead of myself and find volunteering very gratifying, and the biggest reward is at every event I meet more fellow tribal members. If elected I would be an honest and committed council member and I would strive for complete transparency. I will hold myself accountable to the highest standards possible and place a business view as well as a cultural view on any issues that may come before me. I would appreciate your vote and I would be honored to serve and be a tireless advocate for you and the Little Shell Tribe.
