O'Connor Has the Vision to Lead Community



      


I believe John O'Connor has what it takes to serve as a Boundary County Commissioner. My knowledge of John is drawn from a 25-year acquaintance as a fellow Main Street merchant and as a frequent Bonners Books customer. John is a positive constant on Main Street , operating his business in an attractive and dependable manner. John O'Connor has high standards, is focused, detail-oriented, honest and consistent. I have always found him to be a good listener and politely respectful. John leads by example.

County growth, changing circumstances and lean economic times present our community with challenges including zoning and solid waste management. I believe John O'Connor has the vision to lead Boundary County forward developing policies which will benefit future generations. His business experience will be an asset to routine county management. I believe John has the interest, tenacity and strength of character that not only generates good decisions, but implements them as well.

Although I may not agree with John on every issue, I believe he is a candidate who will listen, gather facts, sort out issues, make reasonable decisions and provide sound leadership as a citizens' representative. I believe we are very fortunate that a person with John O'Connor's experience and quiet integrity has offered to step forward and serve our community as a County Commissioner. Remember to vote November 4!
