Republican Pat Anderson announced today that she finished her first tour of the state, visiting 124 different cities over the past six weeks. Anderson, who is running for State Auditor, said she is working to change laws in relationship to Local Government Aid and state mandates on cities and counties.

The LGA formula needs to be re-evaluated," Anderson said in a news release. "There is no longer any linkage between need and funds received. We need to match the funds allocated with the needs of individual communities to provide essential services and to do that we need a better formula."

Anderson's spokesman says she'll do another statewide tour in the fall to discuss policy with local government officials and state lawmakers.

Anderson, who served as State Auditor between 2002 and 2006, is running against State Auditor Rebecca Otto, a Democrat. Otto defeated Anderson in 2006.
