ELECTION LETTER: Van Hoover prepared to carry on legacy

Posted

Thanks to the League of Women Voters and AAUW. Their forum last week gave Jefferson County citizens a clear choice for hospital commission.

Cheri Van Hoover clearly came prepared and deserves your vote.

The questions were pointed and covered the full range of health care issues. Cheri demonstrated her knowledge and experience on mental health issues and services; women’s health; care for the elderly; recruiting and retaining medical staff; and single payer access for all. Her answers were well thought out, articulated and most of all, conveyed a genuine desire and passion to serve.

Cheri Van Hoover will carry on the legacy of former commissioners like Chuck Russell and Tony De Leo who champion a strong independent hospital district.

Cheri Van Hoover deserves your vote.

GEORGE B. YOUNT
