But I didn’t know that. I didn’t know that as I read the multiple coverages in the Herald that delineated the accumulating expenditures for the changes that were being made by her in that very sensitive office.

I judged. I muttered to myself that yes, she had experience in the tech world, but maybe not so much in the financial world of political dollars and cents sense for this county.

How much was it going to cost the county to educate this newly elected treasurer? Because unless a person has had prior governmental treasurer experience, there is bound to be a steep learning curve. How many missteps would be made? I didn’t know.

Beyond my wildest expectations and through some genuinely difficult times, Allison brought the treasurer’s office into the 21st century. Yes, there were glitches that occurred. Some were predictable, some were not. Through it all, Allison rose to these challenges, stuck to her guns with integrity, mounted a resolved determination and persevered with the gumption to get this job done and get it done well.

So she did and continues to do.

This time, Allison will get my vote. I encourage you to do the same.
