Drennan was Republican Committee’s choice for sheriff

I would like to remind the voters of Orleans County that back on May 7, 2015, Tom Drennan was endorsed by the Republican Party Committee as their candidate for sheriff.

The same committee members that have been elected to represent the ten towns of Orleans County and look out for our best interest chose Tom Drennan.

You don’t have to be a rocket scientist to understand that this committee has the knowledge and information needed to make unbiased choices for their constituents without fear or favor. The reason they hold that position is because we, as voters, trusted them with making important decisions for us.

Many have been quoted as saying, “Vote Republican, be loyal to your party.” As far as I am concerned, the Republican choice WAS Tom Drennan.

Forcing a primary and winning by 21 votes is not representative of what the Republican Party truly wanted, or he would have been overwhelmingly endorsed as such. Out of more than 10,000 active registered Republican voters, only one-third showed up on Sept. 10.

I am honored to have two DRENNAN for SHERIFF signs in my front yard. They are not fancy or showy. They are practical, down to earth and humble signs, which exactly represent the man that they endorse. It could not be more clear that Tom Drennan is absolutely meant to be (and deserves to be) the next sheriff of this County.

Tom Drennan may not have been born with a silver spoon in his mouth, but he was born with a sterling character, and that is something that can never be taken away from him. It’s who he is, always has been and always will be.
