To the Editor-

Judge Robert Shannon will receive my vote for Circuit Court Judge in Portage County. I have known Bob and his family on both a professional and personal level for over 25 years. In those years their family has proved to be extremely community minded and been directly involved in numerous programs and causes to strengthen our community in Portage County.

Bob has been practicing law in our community for over three decades. He has spent his entire career practicing law in Portage County gaining respect from the legal profession throughout the Midwest. As a business owner, I have personally experienced his well respected experience on diverse legal issues. He has a proven record of commitment to fair justice and professional integrity in all elements of his legal practice. So much so, that he has been appointed to fill the Circuit Court Judge Branch 2 when John Finn retired eight months ago.

Portage County Circuit Court has diverse case types which are presented to the court on a daily basis. Judge Robert Shannon has the comprehensive legal background in his prior year’s practice to deal with the cases and diversity that come before the court. He will clearly define all facts in each matter and apply factual legal transparency for proper outcomes in all cases.

I ask that you support Robert Shannon for Portage County Circuit Court Judge and vote on April 5th.
