Letter from Jennifer Pindar Van Kampen

Support Is for MacGuire Benton

It is my great pleasure to support MacGuire Benton for Otsego County clerk! I have known him for the past 10 years. He has always shown a true passion for public service and concern for the well-being of his fellow community members. He is the right candidate for this position.

MacGuire has a proven track record in public service. He was elected to two terms as village trustee in Cooperstown and has worked tirelessly in this role. He served as deputy Otsego County elections commissioner, where his primary responsibility as deputy was to administer the absentee ballot system. He has the clerical experience necessary to serve as county clerk.

I immediately supported MacGuire when he told me he was going to run for this job. Since day one, he has shown the dedication, determination, and drive needed for this position. He has been actively talking with people throughout the county. He has knowledge and passion to be successful in this position. I wholeheartedly endorse MacGuire Benton for Otsego County Clerk.

He has my vote!
