Personal Note from Tim Bubb…
Primary Election Day is next Tuesday, May 4th, and the polling places in Licking County will be open from 6:30am till 7:30pm. Also, more than 11-thousand absentee ballots have been mailed to County voters who requested them. Always a timely reminder to get them finished and in the return mail before or by Election Day.
* Check the Board of Elections website at Lcounty.com if you have voting questions or call the BOE staff at 740-670-5080.
People do ask my opinion about the contested commissioner race, which on May 4th will feature a three-person Republican Primary contest for one of the three seats on the Board of Commissioners.
* If you have already voted and/or don’t care about my opinion in this race – feel free to stop reading here or delete. I never mean to impose my opinion, so it is your choice to keep reading!
Thanks for continuing! In the race for commissioner you have an incumbent commissioner and two challengers in the GOP Primary. FYI, there is no contested commissioner primary on the democratic side.
Regarding the Republican Primary - frankly this recommendation is an easy call. By far the most qualified candidate – in all respects - is incumbent Licking County Commissioner Doug Smith. Doug Smith served seven productive terms as a Harrison Township Trustee. He was appointed Commissioner in 2005 replacing Jay Baird, and in 2006 was elected county wide as commissioner.
Doug Smith is an Air Force veteran, a longtime successful local businessman, and is one of the best respected and most well informed people serving in County government. Doug was a true fiscal conservative before that term became just another political buzz word or phrase.
I serve with Doug Smith as commissioner, and I can say, without reservation, that he is one of the most intelligent and thoughtful individuals I have ever met, in any walk of life. He has earned our collective community respect through a lifetime of hard work and achievement!
Let me say simply – Doug Smith is the exact kind of person we all want in public office. Whenever Doug faces a tough decision his first question is always – is it the right thing to do for the people of Licking County? It is always about doing the right thing and serving the ‘greater good’.
I have heard it said…”A politician makes decisions with an eye to the next election – a statesman makes decisions with an eye to the next generation” Doug Smith is a statesman!
Whether you are voting an absentee ballot or in person at the polls next Tuesday - I would ask you to consider joining my wife Marianne and me, as we vote for Doug Smith for commissioner.
A final thought - with no disrespect to his two opponents – Doug Smith is by far the best candidate and I’m certain will continue to serve us all well as County Commissioner.
