3. Letter to the Editor: Vote for Joe! Honesty, Sincerity, Integrity
To the Editor:
Joe Dabulskis is running for the position of Sherman County Judge and I support this candidate.
I first met Joe and Jeanne Dabulskis as a teacher when I had the pleasure of teaching all three of their amazing children. Joe and Jeanne are awesome parents. Their positive support for education was evident in the time they invested with their children and my students during classroom activities as well as attending school events.
Joe’s campaign slogan of three words- Honesty, Sincerity, Integrity – are exemplary of his character. Joe is trustworthy. He is dedicated to do what is best for our county. He is willing to have conversations, asks questions, and listens to what residents have to say regarding county issues.
Joe cares about Sherman County and will strive to do the best job possible as our next County Judge. I encourage you to vote for Joe.
