Write in Wheeldon

 

October 20, 2022



I'm campaigning for Sanders County Sheriff – not for me – but for Deputy Cory Wheeldon as a write-in candidate. Cory is a Montana native who received valuable experience in Yellowstone County (Billings) and knows his way around Sanders County.

I compare Cory to former Sheriff Wally Britton, (a legend in the 1950’s) because he would be a no-nonsense, get-the-job-done type of sheriff. If I were a bad guy, and we elect Cory, I'd pack my bags and leave - at once!

I'm not convinced voting for the other two candidates is a good decision because they're from out of state. Is their goal to “fix” things to be like where they came from? Do we want that? People move here for the Montana experience and values – a safe place to live, work and raise a family. Cory has those values at heart and will ensure those standards are upheld. He is an honest straight-talker who will carry through on his promises. He can be trusted to fulfill the duties of the office within the letter of the law. A neighbor needed assistance a couple years ago and Deputy Cory Wheeldon responded. Their comment was that he was “very professional.”

We shouldn't be influenced by the smothering of signs along the highway. Lincoln County residents elected their Sheriff as a write-in candidate, and we can do the same.

Cory Wheelden was unable to attend the Candidate Forum at the Rex because he was dispatched in the line of duty to an incident just minutes before the Forum began. He intended to attend.

I ask those who voted for French, Hensley and Stough to support Cory as a write-in candidate. Only 28 votes separated Wheeldon and Fielders in the primary. Cory Wheeldon is a viable candidate and can win with your help!

A point to ponder: Shawn Fielders has been out of law enforcement long enough that he would have to attend the 12 week Montana Law Enforcement Academy for re-certification to make an official arrest.

In closing, everyone I've visited with has the utmost respect and admiration for Deputy Cory Wheeldon. Let's get together and vote him in! Remember you need to check the box and write in his name.

Bill Meadows, Trout Creek
