Dear Sarasota County Voter:
On Friday, October 19th I filed paperwork to run
as a Democratic candidate for the Office of
Supervisor of Elections. This is a decision that
I have been considering for some time. My
interest began with issues that arose with the
2000 presidential election and was fueled by the
under-vote controversy here in Sarasota County
in the 2006 elections.
As both a 19 year member
of the Sarasota County Sheriff’s Office and a
voting citizen, I am concerned about the loss of
confidence in our election process. Each of us
has a right and responsibility to participate in
the electoral process and when situations arise
that call into question the integrity of that
process it can only have a negative impact. It
is my interest in restoring confidence and trust
in our local elections office that has brought
me to this decision.
