On November 3rd Vote for Charlottesville's BEST Choice: Independent Paul Best for Charlottesville Sheriff
I am running for Sheriff as an independent. I feel this merits some explanation. I believe that the Sheriff's duty, as well as any law enforcement officer's duty, is to the citizens and not to a particular political party. The sheriff's office provides services irrespective of political affiliation, and it seems at odds with the very nature of the office that a Sheriff would claim allegiance to any party.
It has further been my experience that most Republicans and Democrats are more centrist than their parties rhetoric would have us believe. This is important because blind faith to a party and its candidates is a disservice to the spirit of our democracy and to the people in the community. I look to work for the people of Charlottesville and to avoid the divisive party politics. I ask that each of you look at what I will bring to the office of the Sheriff as compared to the other candidate- and not just at party affiliation.
