Sheriff has proven himself
To the editor:
I am writing to urge the good people of Aroostook County to re-elect Sheriff Jim Madore. Sheriff Madore has chosen to run not against his opponent, but on his own record of exemplary accomplishments in the field of law enforcement on behalf of the citizens of Aroostook.
His opponent, David Salkind, has chosen to run on his record with various and varied out-of- state law enforcement agencies but has neglected to mention his brief and only Maine experience as an officer with the Limestone Police Department. This gives me pause.
Sheriff Madore’s opponent alleges “lack of morale” but when he is given an opportunity to address the officers he wishes to command, he declines. According to the editorial of Oct 20, the deputies unanimously endorsed Sheriff Madore. Is this the “low” morale that Salkind spoke of?
When I need the aid of law enforcement, I want an agency that is led by a man with a proven record of integrity and service! That man is Sheriff Jim Madore.
