Deceptive Mailer

Posted October 28, 2018 at 8:56 pm by

San Juan County voters beware: There is apparently a deceptive mailer circulating in our county encouraging you to ignore the names on your ballot for Sheriff and instead write in Undersheriff Zac Reimer.

Please see the response below found on Facebook from Zac:

It is a shame that I have to set the record straight, but I feel that I must. I have learned that unauthorized mailers have been mailed out stating that you should write my name in for the upcoming Sheriff election.

PLEASE DO NOT WRITE MY NAME IN. I did not approve or authorize this, I am not running for Sheriff, and I feel that this was a very unethical political move. People running for election should do so on their own merit or they have no business running at all.

Furthermore I endorse Ron Krebs for San Juan County Sheriff and I back him 100 percent. Thank you Ron for all that you do for us and making SJCSO a great place to come to work everyday!

Note that the name of the person or organization that paid for the mailer is not disclosed. The logo of the County Sheriff’s office is also used. Both are among the violations of state campaign finance law.
