Thank you to all who worked the polls, called and emailed friends, prayed, knocked on doors, displayed yard signs, wore T-shirts,donated, and all other support to help re-elect our sheriff Esco Jarnagin!! Your hard work and dedication are appreciated by the entire Jarnagin Family! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! We did it!

LET'S GO WITH ESCO AGAIN IN 2010!!

Thanks to all who walked with TEAM JARNAGIN for ALPS. It was a great time for a great cause. Good to see TEAM BRITTAIN there as well!

Saturday evening was the concert with Cody McCarver. Let me just say that I am a fan. He is such a talented performer. My favorite song is definitely "I'm America". If you haven't checked out his music, definitely do so. He's pretty fabulous!

TOMORROW IS THE BIG DAY!!! The polls will be open until 8:00 p.m., so you will have plenty of time after work to cast your vote to RE-ELECT YOUR SHERIFF ESCO JARNAGIN!! I think by this time most people know who they are going to vote for when they go to the polls tomorrow. If you are still undecided it comes down to qualifications and character. Sheriff Esco Jarnagin is a man of character and is best qualified to continue as our Hamblen County Sheriff. If you haven't done so, check out the qualifications and accomplishments of Sheriff Jarnagin posted on this blog. Compare this to his opponent and decide for yourself. TEAM JARNAGIN has run a clean positive campaign because we have a candidate with qualifications and accomplishments that we can promote. I do not appreciate the negativity aimed at the character of my father-in-law. Statistics are statistics, and facts are facts, and that's ok. Slander is slander and that's not ok. I'm looking forward to 8:00 p.m. tomorrow when the polls close and this election is over. May the best man win. That man is ESCO JARNAGIN.
VOTE PROVEN LEADERSHIP, VOTE QUALFICATIONS, VOTE INTEGRITY. VOTE TO RE-ELECT YOUR SHERIFF ESCO JARNAGIN!! LET'S GO WITH ESCO AGAIN IN 2010!!!!!

POSITIVE OUTLOOK

I woke up this morning with a much more positive feeling than I had yesterday. A good night's sleep is so helpful on perspective. I refuse to let the negativity affect my daily routine! I have always been a positive person. That said, EARLY VOTING ENDS THIS SATURDAY THE 31ST!! The General Election is exactly one week away!!! I think all the hard work TEAM JARNAGIN has put in will pay off. Thanks again for all of the encourgement, prayers, and support. Let's continue promoting the best qualified candidate SHERIFF JARNAGIN during this last week. If you haven't voted in early voting, there's still time. Make your vote count! Cast your vote to RE-ELECT YOUR SHERIFF ESCO JARNAGIN!! Also, remeber the Rally and Concert Saturday!! I know we'll have a great time and look forward to seeing Cody McCarver perform. Hope to see everyone there. Hope everyone has a great day filled with the optimism that I have! This picture I included is of Hank waiting for Daddy to return from early voting! My future Republican!

SHAME ON YOU

I received a text forward today from a friend and found it seriously disturbing. The text mentioned an illness of a deputy and stated that Sheriff Jarnagin had not contacted the person who is ill to express his concern. Then it promotes Sheriff Jarnagin's opponent. The text was unsigned. Shame on you, whoever you are, that started this text. I find it disgusting that anyone would use someone's illness for political gain. The text does request prayer for the ill person. My prayers and my family's prayers are with him and his family during this difficult time.

UPTOWN DOWNTOWN!

TEAM JARNAGIN had a great time last night at the Mainstreet Festival. It was hot, hot, hot! The band was really great. I always enjoy the Mainstreet Festival. It's a fun community event. It's always great to see Sheriff Jarnagin's supporters out and about. We also enjoy meeting new folks and informing them why they should vote to re-elect Sheriff Jarnagin. We gave away quite a few yard signs and T-Shirts. Thanks to all who support loud and proud! It was Chief Deputy Wayne Mize's wife Sharon's birthday, and she chose to help with the event. Thanks and love you Sharon! We also handed out flyers promoting the upcoming campaign rally and FREE CONCERT FEATURING CODY MCCARVER. I'm so looking forward to this event coming up July 31st at 4:00p.m.! See you guys there! Also don't forget that this coming week is the last week to EARLY VOTE. Remember, YOUR VOTE COUNTS! Make yours count to RE-ELECT ESCO JARNAGIN!

*HONESTY* INTEGRITY* ACCOUNTABILITY*

These are what Sheriff Esco Jarnagin promised the citizens of Hamblen County when he was elected in 2006. These were not just words spoken, but promises kept to the people who elected Esco Jarnagin. Sheriff Jarnagin's opponent would have you to believe that the high turnover rate at HCSD is indicative of lack of leadership. In fact, it's the opposite. Someone made a quote at our last HCRW meeting. It went something like this, "Sometimes you have to crack a few eggs before you get an omelet." I like this quote. Sheriff Jarnagin has kept his promise to provide Hamblen County with accountability and transparency under his administration by not tolerating waste or corruption. Esco Jarnagin is the best qualified candidate to continue to serve as our Sheriff. His qualifications listed on the side bar of my blog are not requirements to maintain his position. Esco Jarnagin is a graduate of ETSU with a degree in Criminal Justice. Putting himself through college and raising a family while working full time shows the commitment and love he has for law enforcement. Sheriff Jarnagin is committed to Hamblen County because he loves his community and wants to see our children educated and raised in a safe environment. By the way, I need to change the Accomplishments post to read, 30 METH LABS BUSTED TO DATE. Kudos to the officers at HCSD for working together to keep these folks out of our neighborhoods and behind bars! Sheriff Jarnagin has made progress within the Hamblen County Sheriff's Department! Let's work together to make sure this progress continues for the betterment of Hamblen County! GET OUT AND VOTE!! LET'S GO WITH ESCO AGAIN!
