Turner for commissioner

I am very excited to endorse candidate Jack Turner for county commissioner. Jack has done so much to understand the things that are needed to make this county run better.

He has interviewed hundreds (perhaps thousands) of locals to understand how our county government can better serve our needs. He has taken it upon himself to send out a survey to evaluate the results of the county planning department and their process. In doing so, he found that the county does not have the means to adequately evaluate their own work.

No one has overcome more hurdles to become a candidate. During this campaign, Jack has pointed out the things that he would do if elected instead of the shortcomings of his opposing candidates. This is the kind of campaign that I wish all candidates would conduct.

While all three candidates are good people, I am certain that Jack would make the best county commissioner. Please join me in voting for Jack Turner.
