LETTER TO THE EDITOR: ALFONSO VIDAL SUPPORTS STEVE HAMMER FOR COUNTY COMMISSIONER

IN SUPPORT OF STEVE HAMMER FOR COUNTY COMMISSIONER

I have known Steve Hammer through common friends for the last several years, but really got to know him a lot closer these last few months after he asked me to join his campaign.  Based on what I have learned about him during this time, I trust that he will be a good steward of the resources of Vanderburgh county.

Steve has done an outstanding job running his campaign and raising an impressive amount of funds almost singlehandedly.  He understands and uses the available technology to reach a younger demographic. I have been impressed by the number of people that know and trust him and how many of them are willing to go the extra mile for him. He will be a great salesman and representative for the county.

As his fundraising co-chair, I have had the opportunity to spend a lot of time with Steve. And everything he has shared with me during this time I have verified to be true. For example, chamber officials asked him to run which I have verified first hand with past chamber officials that this was true. This doesn’t mean that he has an endorsement from the Chamber, but he has never claimed that to me or have I ever heard him say that. 

He is a successful small business owner, very hard working, and truly cares about this community.  All the pictures and social media posts are true, it is amazing how he keeps everybody in the campaign informed all the time of his schedule.  It is an impressive and tiring schedule. He is not a politician, but he is a fast learner of the issues.  Sometimes I find that the depth of knowledge in each individual issue might not be all there at first, but he will quickly inform himself, learn, and make an informed decision on what to support in his platform.  

Steve has a beautiful family which is a reflection of the true character of a man. He is genuine and transparent.  He has been quick to apologize when in the wrong, which is a trait that is hard to find. 

SINCERELY,
