VOTE FOR EXPERIENCE

The Baker County Commissioner contest is extremely important. Selecting the candidate with extensive life experiences as well as business acumen is an absolute requirement when a $50 million budget has to be managed. Both candidates are nice individuals and well liked by many in Baker County. However, this is no time for a popularity contest when so much is at risk. While some support is based on age, education, or the ability to recite facts and figures, who has the real tangible ability to get the job done and do it well for the benefit of Baker County citizens. Demonstrated actions should always outweigh campaign words. The ballots have been delivered and it is time to initiate critical thinking by selecting who exemplifies the maturity, steadiness of reason, and historical active involvement to solve the pressing issues we face. The elected Baker County Republican Central Committee reviewed both candidates’ resumes. Even though one candidate is registered as a Republican, it was determined that non-political party affiliated Kody Justus had those meaningful traits to meet the needs of our citizens. Thank you for your efforts to research the candidates beyond the brochures and special interest campaign spending which can be viewed on the Secretary of State ORSTAR website.
