Letter to Editor: From Joe Kiefer

Dear Editor,

I have known Lloyd Winnecke ever since I’ve been involved in public service and know a few things about him that makes being involved in local government something to be proud of. Lloyd Winnecke is not the stereotypical politician. He is a strong leader who knows how to build consensus. He looks for the win-win solution. He is not always the “party-line” guy, but he is always the “do the right-thing” for our community guy! He is his own man.

Time and time again, I’ve witnessed Lloyd working for the betterment of our community. When it was thought that funding a dental clinic was insurmountable, Lloyd was able to find ways to finance the dental clinic without negatively affecting the county general fund and budget. Because of Lloyd’s leadership and win-win attitude, the dental clinic has served thousands of residents in our community. As Commissioner, Lloyd’s leadership has been evident in creating jobs, improving transportation, and working with our Sheriff to improve public safety. Recently, working with Commissioners Abell and Melcher, he was able to develop a transportation corridor along US 41 that will improve our opportunities for economic development. I’ve witnessed businesses considering sites along this corridor thanks to Lloyd.

As the president of the Vanderburgh County Council, it’s been an honor to work with Commissioner Winnecke. I know that he is an elected official that is approachable, who cares deeply about our community, and is someone who listens to the concerns of our citizens. I am confident that Lloyd Winnecke will do the same for the city of Evansville as mayor!

Sincerely,
Joe

Joe Kiefer, President of Vanderburgh County Council

  1. Approachable? Are you serious? This is the same guy who was intimidated to be in the 4th ward, while riding in a police car! His words, not mine.

    CCO – where are the moles’ predictions?!?! We’re waiting.

  2. Joe has already came out and said he wants Winnecke’s spot on the County Commission. His asking for a Winnnecke vote is just him asking for a free pass for himself onto the commission. He better clear it with Carol. I think she has dibs on that spot already.

  3. Good letter Joe. You are doing a good job as President of Vanderburgh County Council.

  4. Another “Weinzapfel Republican.”

    Sheesh. Is there anyone in the GOP who has any balls?

  5. Joe Kiefer is another honorable man and good guy. He supports all his Republican ticket just like his local party Chairman Mr. Parke. This may come as a big shock to many local Democrats that Republican leaders and party officers support all of their own ticket. It’s sometimes refered to as class and loyalty. You can still find it in one political party in Evansville.

    • Kiefer is not that honorable and he is as dumb as a box of rocks. If that fool gets appointed to the County Commissioners the collective IQ of that group will be back to where it was when Tornatta was there. Keifer is nothing more than a blond short Tornatta. Can’t Evansville do better than another arrogant fool.

  6. Winnecke is NOT a “leader”. He was OK with everything Weinzapfel has done.

    Want 4 more years of Weinzapfel? Vote for Winnecke.

  7. And let’s not forget that Winnecke TRIED to get rid of our Homestead Credits!!! EVERY homeowner needs to remember that. HE TRIED – but did not succeed!!! If Winnecke is elected Mayor, he’ll probably try and do it again and possibly succeed the next time…

    Pick Rick Davis for Mayor Tuesday, November 8th!
