Sweek brings irst- hand knowledge of county government We have known Greg Sweek for many years through his work with Morrow County government. We have always known Greg to be a good listener, fair minded and just. We believe he will make an excellent Morrow County Judge/Commissioner. He has irst-hand knowledge of how Morrow County government works and is well-placed to implement new policies with the future county govern- ment system. Please join us in voting for Greg Sweek, on the May ballot, for our next Morrow County Judge. (s) Raymond and Carol Michael, Boardman Marriage Licenses Lindsay would be asset to Morrow County We have watched Melissa Lindsay grow up here in Eastern Oregon. Her time spent in Heppner schools, college, Bank of Eastern Oregon mortgage department, ranch bookkeeping skills, and raising two children have made her who she is today. She can do it all. Melissa is very open-minded and works well with oth- ers. She is a great organizer and whatever job she does, it is 100 percent. Her knowledge of how this county runs is due to her energy and attending meetings for the last year doing research to see what this position involves. She is a great example of what citizen government should look like. Successful in every endeavor she does and will bring that to the county. We feel she is extremely qualiied for the job and would be a huge asset to Morrow County. Please cast you ballot for Melissa Lindsay for Morrow County Judge if you want to see this county maintain an excellent operation done right.
