Editor:
I am writing to urge voters to
retain Joan White as our County Clerk. I
have been an attorney for 20 years and have practiced in various counties
during that time. I have found Joan to
be exemplary in the performance of her duties as the clerk. The work she handles is not something that
can be learned except by experience.
The County Clerk’s office, which includes Superior
Court matters, is vastly different in scope than the District Court clerk’s
office. It interfaces with the
Department of Corrections regarding felonies, the Department of Social &
Health Services regarding child support and paternity matters, and even the
U.S. Government regarding passports. All
of this requires a detailed application of the correct procedures to insure
that the participants’ rights are protected.
Joan’s work in the County Clerk’s office for the past 21 years and her
experience with all of the required elements of the job she performs cannot be
replicated except by earning that experience firsthand...and that would take 21
years. Please join me in returning Joan
to her third term as County Clerk.
Sincerely,
Garrett J. Beyer
