An Editorial...County Commissioner Choices

Janet Warford-Perry, one of the two candidates running for Delaware County Commissioner in next Tuesday's election, does not wear a hat or know how to drive a road grader. But as she says, she can buy a hat and hire someone to run the road grader, it's the rest of the job that matters.

Actually, it is what's under the hat that matters the most, and this is why Janet should be elected County Commissioner by the voters. After all, she's already attended more commissioner meetings than even the sitting commissioners, as a reporter for the Miami News-Record for many years.

Her background in the insurance industry gives her the insight to manage a $4.1 million business that affects every man, woman and child in Delaware County-- your taxes, law enforcement, and a host of other issues. Running county government is a business and those in charge should be experienced in business, not just mowing or road grading.

The Observer urges all registered voters in the precincts affected to get out and vote on Tuesday and make the right choice for County Commissioner. Read her answers to our Questionnaire elsewhere in this edition, then cast your vote for Warford-Perry.

Dear editor,
I am glad that you supported Janet Warford-Perry for commissioner. Although I no longer live in Delaware County (and could not vote), I have known Janet for more than 10 years. I admire her challenging the good ole' boy network who believes that as long as someone keeps their roads graded, that is all that matters. It is sad that the "rednecks" in that area can't see that there are more important things that need to be addressed, in addition to keeping up the county roads. My hat is off to you Janet, even if you didn't get elected. You are an awesome individual who not only cares about people but could have done so much more for Delaware County if the good ole' boys had not interfered.
