Elect Kilkenny
To the editor:
I support John Kilkenny
in his bid as a candidate
for Port of Morrow
Commissioner. John is a
third-generation resident of
Morrow County, educated
at the U of O, raised his
children through Morrow
County schools, and holds
genuine interest in the
continued economic and
social success of the Port
of Morrow and Morrow
County. John has served on
several school and county
boards and commissions,
including terms on the
Morrow County Planning
Commission.
I believe John
recognizes and understands
the importance of a solid
working relationship
between the Port and
the cities and county
g o v e r n m e n t s . J o h n ’s
e x p e r i e n c e , i n t e g r i t y,
and energy will benefit
all residents of Morrow
County.
Please join with me
in supporting and electing
John Kilkenny for Port of
Morrow Commissioner.

To the editor,
The Port of Morrow
is the second largest port
in the State of Oregon and
is the site for diversified
industries that provide em-
ployment for some 8,400
employees.
Rick Stokoe, president
of the board of commission-
ers of the Port of Morrow,
is running for reelection.
He deserves your vote.
His name will appear on
your primary election bal-
lot which you may have
already received by the time
you read this letter.
Rick Stokoe is one of
three candidates for Port
of Morrow Commissioner.
There are many more candi-
dates for many more special
districts, several of which
are running unopposed. You
may be tempted to trash
your ballot and not vote in
this election.
Please don’t do that. If
the Port of Morrow Com-
missioner race is the only
position for which you vote,
please vote to reelect Rick
Stokoe. Since the port em-
braces all of Morrow Coun-
ty it is important to maintain
geographic diversity on the
commission.
Rick is employed full
time as the chief of police
in the City of Boardman
where he supervises 10 em-
ployees keeping the peace
in the city and assisting the
county sheriff in Irrigon and
elsewhere when requested.
Rick has been the chief in
Boardman for 11 years and
was chief of police in Nyssa
two years before coming
to Boardman, during his
31-year career in law en-
forcement.
Rick has served as a
director of the Oregon As-
sociation of Police for 10
years and was appointed
by the Governor to the Or-
egon Medical Examiners
Board three years ago. He
was appointed to the Port
of Morrow Commission
six years ago and has been
elected to a four-year term
since then and was elected
president by his peers. As a
commissioner he has served
two years on the Colum-
bia River Enterprise Zone
(CREZ) Board.
Rick has been happily
married to Sheri for 28
years and their two grown
children also live in Board-
man.
Your vote to reelect
Rick Stokoe to the Port of
Morrow Commission is
important.

Support Jacob Cain for
school board
To the Editor:
I am writing this letter in
support of Jacob Cain for Mor-
row County School Board.
Our schools are an important
part of our communities. It
is beneficial that our board
members understand our com-
munities. I have worked with
Jacob on several different
projects. He has spent a sub-
stantial amount of time in our
area. He is a conscientious
individual and will be fair to
all our schools and students.
Please vote for Jacob Cain for
the Morrow County School
District Board.
