Letter from Sherri and Patrick Bartleson

Benton Is Choice for County Clerk

We are writing this letter in support of MacGuire Benton. My husband and I enthusiastically support Mr. Benton in his run for Otsego County clerk. We’ve been registered Republicans for over 25 years. However, in this race for County Clerk, we’re choosing Mr. Benton.

We’ve had the opportunity to listen to him speak about his ideas, qualifications, experience and why we cares so much about public service at several forums across Otsego County.

The message from his opponent that he isn’t qualified and doesn’t understand the department couldn’t be farther from the truth.

His loyalty, dedication, and desire to listen throughout his campaign has proven to us that he is an amazing young man and the right person for the job. We know he’s for the people of Otsego County. He wants to work for US. He has shown his commitment to the job throughout his campaign by showing up in every community and listening, by canvassing neighborhoods, and participating in many local events. We hope more young people commit themselves to public service and go to work for their communities. These are some of the reasons that we are so proud of MacGuire Benton and have chosen to vote for him in this election. Join us in doing the same.
