Thank You

Now that the primary election is over, I would like to take a moment to thank everyone for the support I was given throughout the campaign. So many of you opened your homes and porches to my wife and me for some great conversation and insight as to what you are looking for in a Sheriff and the Sheriff’s Office. Because of that support, I received 59.25 percent of the votes, and I am now fortunate to be your Republican candidate for Kiowa County Sheriff.
