LETTER | Candidate urges support for Republicans

David Corbett, the Republican candidate for York County sheriff, says Democrats have led the state and county down the wrong path and urges voters to choose Republicans only on Nov. 3

Editor:

Polling indicates that Mainers believe Maine is going in the wrong direction. 

Consider who our leaders have been.  From the governor to legislators; the sheriff to county commissioners; and mayors to city council members, the leaders are all the same: Democrats!

The Democrats have taken us down the road of free needles, sanctuary cities, tax money spent on illegal immigrants, ICE outlaws, immigrant housing, increase in taxes, increase in Maine’s budget, abortion up to birth, boys in girls’ sports, high electric costs due to state subsidies, increases in property taxes and the list goes on.

Citizens of Maine and especially York County, where I am running for Sheriff, should yell “enough is enough!” Let us change direction and elect Republicans!

There is a large difference between Republicans and Democrats. I demonstrate this on my website at Sheriff Corbett.com, where under Corbett’s Corner, I wrote an article entitled, “American by Birth, Republican by Choice.”

Former Vice-President Mike Pence also listed what conservatives believe and this can be found on my website. 

Elections are not about electing our friends, but electing leaders that will change the direction of Maine.  My qualifications for sheriff include college and graduate degrees, multiple schools at the Maine Criminal Justice Academy, service in York County agencies, and Professor of Criminal Justice for 13 years.  My 30 plus videos on You Tube/sheriff Corbett, explain my vision.

Please vote Republican on November 3.
