Letters To The Editor

We thank you Sparkle Market in Lisbon

To the editor: I would like to take this opportunity to thank the owners and employees of the Sparkle Market in Lisbon for their many years of service to the community. We at Family Recovery Center have had a long relationship with the store and its management. We thank them for the times they have hired our women to work in the store and give them their first chance of having a real job and becoming responsible members of the community. Secondly, I personally thank the staff for having a great bakery department and the best donuts in the area as they were unbeatable. I will also miss ...

Questions for local Democrats

To the editor: I ask local Democrats do you want to “re-imagine” our police force, our courts and system of government? Do you want to “defund” our sheriff’s department? The Democrat Party that you belong to wants to “re-imagine” and “de-fund” the police. Mr. Gamble you want to be our prosecutor, so do you want prisoners released from jails like your fellow Democrats are doing across our country. Do you want anarchists and arsonists that are assaulting police and rioting across our country bailed out with money paid from Kamlala Harris’s donations to the ...

A dare for union members to vote for Biden-Harris

To the editor: I dare union members from every union and all employees receiving health insurance from employers to vote for Biden-Harris. Remember when Biden-Harris raised their hands for Medicare for All? Medicare is 80/20. Additional health benefits cost those on Medicare additional money. Also remember Biden thinks Obamacare needs saved. This is my Obamacare nightmare. It first started with Obama’s lie: “If you like your insurance you can keep your insurance.” I was dropped by my insurance the day Obamacare took effect. I had $1,000 deductible. Paid $232 a month and my ...

Sheriff lends support for county prosecutor candidate

To the editor: This letter is in support of Vito Abruzzino for county prosecutor. Vito has been a successful federal prosecutor with international prosecutorial experience. He has been a United States Justice Department prosecutor, a civil litigator, as well as an assistant law director. He has prosecuted every type of case that a county prosecutor would prosecute. This county is lucky to have a candidate with this kind of military and civilian knowledge under his belt to run for such an important position. I believe that Vito Abruzzino is one of the most highly qualified prosecutor ...

Former Election Board member expresses views

To the editor: Much is being made in the race for county prosecutor of John Gamble’s so- called “experience”. Well let’s examine his “experience” as it relates to recent headline news reports. John Gamble has been fined by a visiting judge for “willful contempt” and was threatened with jail time, not ten years ago, but a few months ago. Good “experience”? John Gamble has had to have another visiting judge assigned to a case filed against him by the Attorney General of Ohio for violating the Hatch Act, knowingly soliciting civil service police officers to violate ...

Neglected properties concern neighborhood coalition

Neglected properties concern neighborhood coalition To the editor: I am writing on behalf of our neighborhood coalition to bring attention to a serious issue that is going on with property tax delinquencies with East Liverpool, My neighbors and I work very hard to keep our neighborhood looking nice and do our best to keep our homes and yards well maintained. With the mayor’s leadership in the city, things are really starting to turn in a positive direction, but abandoned homes, blight and declined property values are issues that need to be resolved and with leadership from county ...
