I support Lou Schmitt in his candidacy for the office of Blair County Judge. I have had the pleasure of knowing Lou for many years, during which time we have worked together in a legislative capacity. Throughout our professional relationship, Lou has consistently demonstrated the character, dedication and integrity that are essential for judicial service.

I have seen firsthand Lou’s commitment to fairness, and his respect for law and order — qualities that will serve him well on the bench.

Lou’s longstanding involvement in our community, combined with his extensive legal and legislative experience, makes him uniquely qualified for this role. I have full confidence in his ability to uphold the responsibilities of the position with honor and impartiality.

Please consider Lou Schmitt for Blair County Judge. I am confident he will serve with the same excellence and dedication.
