Steinborn needs to go away - he and his staff are unresponsive, do not
return calls and or emails and even
when they say they will get back to
you they never respond.

Still waiting for answer to email
I sent about 7 weeks ago despite
assurances I would get a response.

Now that is what I call responsive public service.

Kent Evans will get the answers you desire - might not like them but
at least you will get the answer.

GO EVANS

Are you kidding me? Evans never went to bat for County Treasurer Schoonover when Schoonover's name was plastered all over the media. Some loyalty, huh? Some friend, huh? Also, in today's paper, Evans said he would have run for county commissioner again, but he can't because of term limits and that's why he's running for state representative. That sounds to me like the only reason why he wants the job. I would trust Steinborn much more than I would trust Evans. Evans is a nice guy, but it's time for him to get out of politics.

That only makes it less excusable. Steinborn has done nothing in his life except be around politicians. If he'd made something of himself on his merits before taking up a career in politics, I'd be more likely to vote for him.
He's never worked for a department and had to prove himself, he was always a political appointee thanks to his fathers influence. No thanks.
I'd rather vote for a republican than a do nothing like Jeff. He is a nice guy though, and if he'd roll up his sleeves and get a real job for a while to prove himself, I might be convinced to change my mind.

Sounds like another partisan speaking their minds again. Obviously then if he does his own work or something that he takes credit for then he should not have to even research the topic as easy as calling the number or dropping a note - not me that puts out a response message saying that my question will be answered in 3 working days. It has now been 21 days with two follow up notes that say the same exact thing.

If you can't provide the service then stop the lip
service and move on.

Funny that the people I have talked to at work,
in the neighborhood and around town can't put
a finger on anything that he has done.

Can't ride the coattails of anyone on this one
Jeff :)

Obviously you have never heard of the term working on
a career from the bottom to the top - must be one
of those that created a business for themselves
only to create a job and not to really expand or
do anything other than just have a job.

Term Limits are great - we would be much better off
if we had term limits in the Senate and House at
the National Level for sure.

Evans has done a great job - been bipartisan in
reaching across and working with all Democrats and
he has gained their respect for the work he has done
across the state.

ELECT EVANS and move forward :)
