Sue Cooperman serves community

We have nothing against new people relocating to our beautiful county and finding jobs, in fact some of our favorite people are relative newcomers. When it comes to running for public office, we do admire people like Sue Cooperman. She has served the county residents very effectively for a long time in the County Attorney’s office. Without leaving her job or the county and at her own expense she found a way to continue her education to better serve our citizens. Sue’s professionalism and promptness was always appreciated each time we asked for assistance from the County Attorney’s office. We’ve heard this same opinion from numerous citizens over the years. We think Sue has earned the opportunity to serve this county as Justice of the Peace and has our support.
