To the Editor:

I have worked with Fred Morrill for over 7 years.

Although I do not consider myself a terribly political person, I do like to think that I am a pretty good judge of character.

I have listened to Fred as he considered and handled tough county issues over the years. I have sought his advice on personal matters as well.

I think he has an outstanding ability to stand strong for the things he believes are truly the best for the people, not an agenda or a party.

Whenever he can, he tries to do things diplomatically, but when an issue is tough he does not just back down and go with the flow.

He is strong. He is trustworthy and he is a good representation of our people; of all of us.

Please vote for Fred Morrill for re-election. He has more work to do! It's as simple as that.
