Editor:

Mike Bloom has my vote for Oneida County Judge. Mike has had the experience of working with the Oneida County court system on a daily basis as our Public Defender, in private practice, and now as our District Attorney. He has perspective and he understands the problems of people on both sides of the issues.

Mike has dealt with criminal cases, the protection of children, family issues and disputes of all kinds, and he has done it on a daily basis for many years. His depth of understanding of the challenges facing people in our region cannot be discounted; his concern for and his involvement in the community has been proven time and again.

His opponent is a good person with a family history in the area, but Mike clearly has the necessary background to be the right choice for Oneida County Judge. Vote for Mike Bloom on April 3rd.
