Letter: Vote for Shugrue and Bowler

Letter to the EditorPrint Story | Email Story

To the Editor:

On Tuesday, Sept. 6, or before with early voting or mail-in voting, I will vote for attorney Timothy J. Shugrue for Berkshire County district attorney and Berkshire County Sheriff Thomas N. Bowler for re-election.

As creator and producer of [public access show] "Solutions Rising," I hope you will go to webcast.nbctc.org to learn more about their extensive background and significant experience. Attorney Shugrue just taped two "Solutions Rising" programs with me, and Sheriff Bowler recently taped his fourth program. Integrity means everything in our elected officials, and both have demonstrated that quality and admirable community involvement and commitment in their lives.

Your vote matters, and Tuesday, Sept. 6, is the definitive election for both Berkshire County district attorney and Berkshire County sheriff. I believe attorney Shugrue and Sheriff Bowler have earned your vote, and Berkshire County will be well served when they are elected.
