Why should anyone vote for you?

You should vote for me as White County Recorder because I worked as an Office Administrator for 20 years, managing payroll for 30+ employees as well as accounts payable and receivable. Managing a multi-million dollar budget as well as managing federally funded bridge work and roadwork. With that background, I feel that I am qualified to run the White County Recorder's Office.

Beth's thoughts:

I moved to White County in 1979 and worked at McDonald's to help support my family's finances. I was then a stay-at-home mother until my children started junior high school, and I returned to McDonald's whenever my husband got laid off. So I have always been in the service industry. I have worked at the County Building for 10 years and then at the White County Highway Department for 20 years. I will tell you that I will treat everyone who comes to the White County Recorder's Office with respect. If I am asked a question that I do not know the answer to, I will do my level best to find the answer for that
