Sypolt a leader

I am writing this letter to recommend Judge Greg Sypolt to re-election for Superior Court judge. With so many races on the ballot this year, it is hard to be informed about the judicial candidates. Please consider going to Judge Sypolt’s website to understand why he is the best person for the job.

You’ll discover he has been working as a judge for 20 years but still finds time to be involved with the Volunteers of America, Career Path Services, the Rotary Club and the Diversity Section of the Spokane County Bar Association. He is on statewide professional committees, such as the Equality and Fairness Commission and Minority and Justice Commission of the Washington Supreme Court.

I have known Judge Sypolt as a member of the Diversity Section and have been impressed with his work ethic and commitment to justice for all. He quietly and effectively shows leadership within the Spokane community and is not one to take credit for the good work he has done and inspired. I believe that these qualities are what we all would like in a judge. So if you are looking for someone with integrity, please vote for Judge Sypolt.
