Dear Editor:
As [Whiteside County, IL,] Sheriff, I hired both John Booker and his opponent. I know both of them well. Without any hesitation, I support John Booker for re-election as Sheriff.
John Booker has done an amazing job as our Sheriff. When I first supported him, I knew he would be a great leader for the Sheriff ’s Office. He has never once disappointed. My faith in him was, and is, well-placed.
Public safety comes before politics. Experience in that Office is vital to protecting the public safety. John Booker has the experience and the skills necessary to continue to lead the Sheriff ’s Office, in a way that best protects all of us.
John Booker has built an incredible, professional Sheriff ’s Office. His hiring
decisions and his leadership have been a key part of operating such a great office.
I endorse John Booker for re-election as Sheriff of Whiteside County.
Roger Schipper
