Jeff Asher: ‘My ideas represent your vision for public safety’ I would like to take this opportunity to talk about how this election fits into the great experiment in democracy that we started in 1776.

Anyone who has been following the contest for sheriff knows that this has been a tough run for me, as some in the Sheriff’s Department have kept up a steady stream of formal and informal attacks on me, my family, and my candidacy.

Rob Nou ... candidate for San Juan County sheriff - Contributed photo Aug 03 2010, 3:34 PM The Journal invited the five candidates for sheriff to tell you, in 400 words or less, what you need to know about what they will do as our top cop. Here are their guest columns.

Rob Nou: ‘I have the background to hit the ground running’ As you look over your primary election ballot, I truly hope that each of you carefully consider the choices before you — particularly as you cast your vote for San Juan County sheriff. You currently have five choices, and the top two will advance to the general election in November.

The sheriff should be a proven leader. He is the chief law enforcement officer for the county, responsible for providing our island communities with the levels of service and protection that you expect and deserve. I have served as the “top cop,” — as the Chief of Police in Burns, Ore., from 2004-08. I led an agency of five full-time officers. The agency also had the 911 center which served the entire county.
