Letter to the Editor: Jack Graham will serve Town of Webb well on judicial bench

Dear Town of Webb Voters:

November 8th is Election Day, and this is a very important year for your community. You will be casting ballots for people you feel will do the best job in the position for which they are running.

It is not a popularity contest, an acknowledgement of anyone’s wealth—if they happen to own a business—or of anyone’s lifestyle.

In any local government you want and need people who are honest and trustworthy, who will treat you, the local citizens, and visitors to our area with respect and dignity.

You want to choose someone who best represents the very best your town has to offer. I believe my dad, John “Jack” Graham, is the best choice for Webb Town Justice.

If I could vote in the Town of Webb, I would vote for him— and not because he is my father.

His extensive law enforcement background has given him the experience to understand and interpret the laws of this state, town, and surrounding communities.

He has interacted with all types of characters and has always treated them with fairness, respect, and even compassion.

He has a vast network of acquaintances in all levels of the judicial system, which can be instrumental in receiving and implementing services such as community service programs for youthful offenders.

My Dad is already an active member in the town. You see him everywhere. He’s at the stores, at the post office, and the fire hall. He is always out and about, ready to listen to you and help any way he can.

I was recently sought on a social network site by someone I had not thought of in 20 years. His first message to me was to express his appreciation of my Dad.

In his younger days, after having “tested” the system, he was approached by my father who took the time to listen to him before explaining his options and possible consequences and, finally, treating him fairly.

It is because of that interaction that this person became a changed man who has now worked for over 15 years as a Corrections Officer.

I think the Town of Webb deserves a judge who is honest, trustworthy, and fair. Someone who acts in a professional manner and will always will do his best to help any person.

If you believe this, then you MUST VOTE for John “Jack” Graham for Town of Webb Justice. He will always be there for you.

Sincerely,

Kristy Graham, Woodgate
