Letter from David Bliss

Basile Has the Needed Skills

It is without hesitation that I write this endorsement of Jennifer Basile for Otsego County clerk. As a licensed real estate broker, former town supervisor and current county representative for District 8, I have had countless interactions with the Clerk’s Office in several counties.

Throughout her tenure as deputy clerk, I have come to know Jennifer as a dedicated and extremely knowledgeable professional whose desire to serve the community is apparent. Her expertise in the duties and responsibilities of the county clerk and DMV offices far exceed her opponent.

Furthermore, she is the only candidate that has the technical and software skills required to operate the computer systems and applications unique to the County Clerk and DMV offices.

Common sense tells us proficiency in these particular operating systems is, at the very least, a prerequisite to anyone seeking a position of this importance. Please join me in casting a ballot for Jennifer Basile.
