Letter from Bertine McKenna

Vote Glynn for Otsego Justice

I met Laura Glynn recently at a Rotary meeting and got to know her better over coffee. To say I was impressed is an understatement. She is a self-made woman who survived challenges in her youth, became a lawyer and is setting up her own law practice. In addition, she has two hearing-challenged children. Add to this that she is passionate about being a justice and chose to run for this office.

Lauren says, “It’s Important to “show up” as a justice and be available to your public.” The world is run by those who “show up”—a quote from Ben Franklin—a phrase I have often quoted during my career. Lauren is youthful and wise, passionate and practical, patient and driven.

I have never written a letter about a candidate, but I do this now because of her impact on me. I see in her honesty, Integrity, strength, commitment and a super-human ability to handle whatever comes her way. We are lucky she has come home to Cooperstown and I sure hope she stays. Lauren contributes to her community in every way she can and we will be better for it.
