Letters to the editor LGO teaser

As a lifelong conservative, I support Judge Wes Williams’ reelection. I am confident he will continue to protect our constitutional rights and not put government interests above ours.

My belief is furthered by Judge Robert S. Raschio’s endorsement of Judge Williams. Judge Raschio, the Harney County judge, recently protected our Second Amendment rights, which were threatened by Measure 114. Judge Raschio’s endorsement is on Judge Williams’ website: weswilliamsforjudge.org. I encourage you to read it and other statements of support.

The citizens of Union and Wallowa counties need to keep Judge Williams as our elected judge.
