Writer supports Backman

To The Eagle:

I have observed Mike Backman doing so much for our community over the years, volunteering, etc.

He is not a politician and to my knowledge has never conducted county business acting as partisan. He has identified himself as an independent and governed that way.

I have respect for Mr. Prestegard, but I am concerned about a partisan of either major party bringing the mess we have at the federal and state level of governance to our county government.

I can say, and I believe most would agree, we have had some pretty fair governing from our present county commissioners.

I think Mike is one of us and I strongly support him for reelection.

A special thank you to The Eagle newspaper because it is so important to have a place to share one’s opinion on the important topics of the day.
