Dear Editor,

I wanted to take a moment and give some accolades to Casey Roberts, the Sports Editor for the Sentinel-News. I have been a regular reader of the Sentinel for almost 4 years now (since I moved to Simpsonville). Casey’s writing has continued to impress me more and more. He relentlessly cover ALL of the high school (and most of the middle school) sports from both schools. I appreciate his thoroughness and dedication and hard work. He also keeps a finger on the pulse of the College game as well. Besides the high quality of the writing itself, he is knowledgeable and up-to-date on the current, HOT issues of the day — NIL, Transfer Portal, and most recently Sports psychology. HIs behind the scene looks and Coach/ player profile pieces are not only informative , but a delight to read. In summary, his articles are timely and thoughtful and I look forward to next Thursday to see what he brings. I know that as soon as I hit “SEND”, somebody will swoop in and hire him away. If so, he deserves it. Good Job, Casey!!! Keep it up !

It is our job as Voters to interview candidates and select the candidate that offers the best skills to be our legislator.

Ed Gallrein is out front here for me.

I first meet Ed when Bill Gallrein introduced us at farm.

Ed had just moved here to be near family after retiring from the Navy.

I found Ed easy to talk to, easy to get to know, easy to respect. Big for me he listens. As I have gotten to know Ed better the respect has grown.

With Ed the work ethic is there. The conservative Christian values are there. The strong Family values are there. The ability to do this job is there.

Ed’s ability to see a problem and the desire and ability to find a solution are there.

Do your job as a voter, get to know Ed. When you do you will vote to elect Ed Gallrein to be your next State Senator.

Folks, who we elect here has never been more important. Our vote, above all else, has to be about putting the best, the strongest, and the most able in office.

That’s why my vote will be to elect Ed Gallrein.

Join me. Go vote for Ed Gallrein.
