Owasso Firefighters Endorse Walton for Sheriff

The Owasso Firefighter Union voted to endorse Scott Walton to be the next Rogers County Sheriff. 

The endorsement was issued to Walton on Tuesday night, the same night the group met.

Earlier in the evening, Walton and his opponent had attended a forum at the Catoosa Community Center which was hosted by the Catoosa Chamber of Commerce. 

Both candidates went to the Owasso Firefighter Union meeting seeking their endorsement and both candidates were afforded an opportunity to present their platforms and speak to the membership.  When both candidates were heard from the membership weighed the platforms and decided which candidate would better serve the interests of public safety.

In a letter written to Walton, Firefighter Union President Shane Atwell wrote that the membership had issued a collective endorsement of Walton to be the next Sheriff of Rogers County.

"It is our belief that you display the character, experience, and professionalism required to lead the Rogers County Sheriff's Department."

Walton, reading the letter, said he was humbled by the endorsement and grateful for the support he received from the firefighters. "These guys are dedicated to making sure the public is safe and out of danger.  These guys make going above and beyond the call of duty look routine."

"It is an honor to extend our endorsement to Walton," read the letter.

"What I'm especially proud of," Walton said, "is that the Firefighters Union had a chance to look at both platforms, side by side, and were able to see that what I'm interested in is keeping the public safe and making the Rogers County Sheriff's Office the better than it is today."
