Dear Editor,

I am writing to support my friend Chad Miner in his campaign for Superior Court No. 3. Chad has provided legal assistance to my family and me over the years in our farming operations and related ventures.

I have always enjoyed working with Chad and have valued his common-sense approach to dealing with legal matters and solving problems. I have always appreciated Chad’s attention to detail and professionalism, too. And, of course, I would not be supporting Chad in his campaign if I did not believe that he had the character and integrity necessary to be a judge.

And while it goes without saying that competence and integrity are essential, Chad also has deep roots in this community and he understands our shared values and beliefs.

Chad has family in grain farming and hog farming and he cares about the issues and concerns that the agricultural community faces. Chad also has a strong work ethic and I know that he would work hard for our County.

I believe that Chad Miner is the best candidate for the Superior Court 3 Judgeship and I am encouraging all of my friends and neighbors to support him in the June 2 GOP Primary.
