A commissioner for all

Published 12:55 pm Thursday, October 25, 2012

Dear Editor,

I am writing this in support of Commissioner Don (Bud) Hover for re-election. Having worked directly for the Okanogan County Commissioners for 20 years I can tell you that Bud is a dedicated and honest commissioner. He is not only knowledgeable, but takes action at various levels of government fighting for the issues that concern the citizens of the county.

In addition, he is an excellent manager of the county’s finances. The fairness of his decisions is unsurpassed and he has been instrumental in reducing the number of lawsuits stemming from unfair personnel practices.

He truly is a commissioner for all the people not just a select few. I urge you to cast your vote for Bud.
