Welcome to Mark Hunter for Columbia County Sheriff 2008
Hello and welcome to the Mark Hunter for Sheriff Campaign website. I am honored that you cared enough to stop by. Why am I seeking the office of Sheriff of Columbia County? Because hundreds of people just like you have asked me to run for the office of Sheriff of Columbia County. They, as I do, believe that we deserve better from our Sheriff’s office. Better leadership, better safety in our schools, better fiscal management of our Sheriff’s department, and better treatment of all of our Sheriff’s office employees; as well as the law abiding citizens of Columbia County.
Mark Hunter with two young supporters,
Nax and Nile Joye and a recent rally.
I am a certified State of Florida law enforcement officer and I have a proven record of effective leadership in both the military and the law enforcement community.
During the next few years our Sheriff’s Office will face challenges which require a Sheriff who has exceptional leadership and management skills. Our Sheriff’s office simply cannot meet these challenges if we continue on with the ineffective and incoherent management we have seen over the last four years.
Mark speaks with local voters about issues important to everyone.
Again thank you for stopping by the MarkHunterForSheriff campaign. Please take the time to visit other pages of this website to learn more about me and the programs I propose to implement in order to provide the maximum safety for you and yet not bankrupt our county. I hope you will agree that we must have a Change for Leadership in our Sheriff’s department and will vote for and support Mark Hunter as the next Sheriff of Columbia County.
