If one seeks preparedness in a candidate, Claire Snyder-Hall is the obvious choice to represent District 14 in the upcoming primary election. Her resume and accomplishments far outshine those of others in this primary, and she needs little introduction to the legislators with whom she would work if elected to serve. She’s prepared.
In spite of some petty accusations, muckraking and cronyism promoted by some well-known folks in our local politics, Snyder-Hall has chosen to focus her attention on meeting and supporting the voters in the district. She has been open about her ample qualifications, background, positions and goals. She’s eager to answer questions and to hear the concerns of her neighbors throughout the district, regardless of their income level, age, gender, race or past support of particular candidates. She listens. She cares. She considers solutions. While she also supports business owners, her interest is in serving the people – all of the people, including those who are sometimes underrepresented.
Claire Snyder-Hall is the only candidate for the District 14 position in this primary who knocked on my door and, while that’s not reason enough to vote for her, she did not misrepresent herself, her background, qualifications or from whom she has endorsements or support. After we spoke, with real humility and a genuine smile, she sincerely asked for my vote, taking nothing for granted. She’s doing the work and it shows. I believe she will be equally tireless in support of all of her constituents, if elected, and capable of, based on her collaborations and many previous accomplishments, making good things happen for the district and for Delaware.
On Tuesday, Sept. 10, I encourage you to join me in casting a vote for Claire for Delaware.
