Letters to the Editor

Bigelow-Cherry is most qualified

It is our pleasure to write this letter of endorsement of Attorney Suzanne Bigelow-Cherry for the position of Northern Blair County magisterial judge. Bigelow-Cherry will use her 30-plus years of experience, her love of our community and determination to advocate and serve our community from the bench. Her nomination is a powerful statement for bipartisanship. As a long-standing Republican, she has proven herself to be fair and impartial, ensuring that the justice system works fairly for everyone. She remains the qualified, conservative candidate that Republicans (over 1,300) ...

Education elevates Bigelow-Cherry

I am writing in strong confidence and support for Suzanne Bigelow-Cherry for magisterial district judge. I have known Bigelow-Cherry and her family for over 20 years and have recently had opportunities to talk with her at length of the important work our district magistrates are entrusted to do. Her education alone puts her qualifications way above what this community needs in a magistrate. Our confidence comes from her 30 years of working in the judicial system. Her experience on the job, knowing the laws that protect our community is vital in today’s world. I ...

Letter on Kirk showed bravery, commitment

To the brilliant young man who wrote his opinion in the Sept. 26 edition (“Let Charlie Kirk’s fate motivate you”), I say: Bravo. We need more people with your ethic, young and old alike. Thank you for your bravery and commitment. It is truly inspiring. Anita Ray Tyrone

Imler dedicated to Allegheny Twp.

I am writing in support of Fred Imler II for Allegheny Township supervisor. A lifelong resident, Imler has served on the board of supervisors for 24 years, providing steady, conservative leadership. Under his guidance, the township has maintained balanced budgets, a consistent financial plan and an efficient, hardworking staff. Imler’s proven ability to manage both resources and people demonstrates his commitment to fiscal responsibility and good governance. He brings valued experience, sound judgment, and transparency to every decision. With no hidden agenda, his focus ...

Stoltz will continue Fred Miller’s work

I don’t have a vote in the magisterial district judge race in Tyrone this year, but we all have a stake in it. The Republican nominee, Kevin Stoltz, is a man who will uphold the Judeo-Christian principles which are the foundation of American justice. Stoltz will continue the great work of the late Judge Fred Miller, whose family and admirers (as I was), fully support Kevin. The position of MDJ is basic to the administration of justice in our county and our commonwealth. Stoltz will be a law and order judge, so sorely needed these days. He is ready and able to take on that ...

Don’t underestimate power of voting

Last year during the presidential campaign, we were told if we didn’t vote for a certain candidate, it could be the last election we ever voted in. They lied to the American people. Those who lied were both candidates and celebrities. Did they lie for their political power? Probably. November will be the second time in a year that we have the opportunity to vote for the candidate of our choice. Please exercise your right to vote. Daniel Johnson Altoona
