SCOTT WALTON

Sheriff
Rogers County

Oologah Lake Leader

For the second time in a week, Scott Walton has been endorsed by a news publication. 

The Oologah Lake Leader has given Scott Walton the endorsement to be the next Sheriff of Rogers County. The Lake Leader compared both campaigns and favored Walton's bid for the sheriff seat. 

The Lake Leader, in the October 30, 2008 edition, articulated that Walton "has a far better understanding of the county's need for a unified dispatching center for emergency services countywide."

The news publication described Walton's character as "tough," "fair-minded" and, "a people-oriented leader - exactly what we need in a sheriff." 

In referencing the need to unify emergency communications throughout the county, the Lake Leader wrote that Walton's networking abilities will serve the public safety needs of Rogers County well.  "His (Walton's) ability to work well with others will be vital in resolving one of the county's major problems."

The news organization explained that many improvements have been made at the Sheriff's Office in recent years and that Walton would be the best pick to build upon those qualities while pursuing needed improvements. 

The Lake Leader also endorsed former Lake Leader reporter Bill Snyder for the Oklahoma House of Representatives District 9 seat;  Jack Barnes for the Rogers County District 2 Commissioner's race and Peggy Armstrong for her bid to be reelected as the Rogers County Clerk. 

In the October 22, 2008 edition of the paper, endorsements went to incumbent Jeff Cloud for Corporation Commissioner (Full Term); Jim Roth (short term); Andrew Rice for the United States Senate;  Georgiana Oliver for United States Congressional District 1 and; Dan Boren for United States Congressional District 2.

The Oologah Lake Leader encourages readers to make their voice heard this election and cast their ballot for Scott Walton for Rogers County Sheriff.
