Rupp will work to keep resources coming in

To the Editor:

There is no doubt that the residents of St. Lawrence County need the brightest and most talented people serving to help ease the burden that New York State imposes on us and from the cost of services that the county provides.

Every day more resources are cut or are made more difficult to obtain. We need people who will work hard to keep those resources coming to our county and who are innovating to find other ways to produce revenue.

Mary Lou Rupp is the clear choice to accomplish that in the county clerk’s office.

2011 has seen the smallest increase in downstate car dealer revenue in the last 5 years. Since 2006, the average annual increase in this revenue that Patti Ritchie and Mary Lou Rupp have brought into St. Lawrence County has been an astounding 56%!

Even during the devastating 2008-2009 years, we had an increase in revenue of 35%.

If the drop that has occurred in 2011 continues, it won’t be long before we lose yet another source of income for our county. We can’t afford that. Mary Lou Rupp can turn that around.

Mary Lou Rupp is a hard working, no nonsense person who has the ability to keep our county clerk’s office generating revenue for our county. In these financially stressed times, Mary Lou has the mindset to keep increasing the value of that office.

She has always had my support and she will certainly get my vote on Nov. 8.
