Letter: Elect Judge Joe Burrowes to Superior Court

I’ve known Joe Burrowes for more than 28 years. He is cheerful, energetic, enthusiastic and has a great work ethic. He has worked his way up the chain of command and has a wide variety of work experience under his belt. His wide-ranging life experiences make him a better judge. He is totally reliable, honest, and dedicated to his profession — justice.

Joe has already performed admirably as a judge and has proven repeatedly he is the right person for the Superior Court. Joe is highly regarded by the law enforcement community and court personnel. He is free from political influence and is devoted to justice for our community. I highly recommend our community invest in Joe, as he has invested in our community through numerous charitable and civic activities.

Do the right thing for our community. Please vote for Joe — my family and friends will.

Greg McDowell, West Richland
