Richard C. Armstrong

Republican Candidate for County Judge/Executive

My family and I are lifelong residents of Clinton County. My father, the late Gordon Armstrong, was a welder and instructor at the Clinton County Vocational School; my mother, the late Mary Lou Armstrong, was an inspiring woman who also served our community. Their guidance allowed me to use my hands and skills to earn a living and establish a business that has thrived in this community for over 30 years. My wife, Joy, and I, have raised two children of our own, who like many of our young people, have moved away to seek employment and educational opportunities in other areas of the Commonwealth. We have also been blessed with five wonderful grandchildren.

I am running for County Judge/Executive with the goal to create opportunities for our young folk. So if they choose, they too can thrive in this community, enjoy our small town heritage, its natural beauty, its resources, and raise families of their own. I will use my experience as a successful businessman to work with others on a local and state level to implement a plan for growth that everyone can be proud of. As some already know, I am not a politician. What I am is a citizen, a businessman, and a strong voice in our community when we need it.

I, Richard C. Armstrong, ask for your vote for County Judge/Executive for a stronger community and a stronger future.

Clyde Stearns

Republican Candidate for Jailer

Hello, my name is Clyde Stearns and I’m asking for your vote for Jailer in May.

I’ve been married for 39 years to Brenda Stearns. We have three children, Sandra Lee, Kathy Brannon, and Billy Stearns. We have four grandkids, Makayla and Kendra Lee and Hannah and Rodney Brannon. I’ve been a member of the Beech Bottom Lodge #788 for 27 years and the Pastor of New Bethel Church for eight years.

I’ve always worked hard. I worked at IGA for 20 years. I drove a school bus for the last 27 years and I’m also a deputy jailer for the Clinton County Jail and have been for the last 15 years. With my experiences over the years as a deputy jailer I believe that I’m most qualified for the job.

I’m asking for your vote in the May election. I’ve always tried to treat people right and if elected I will continue to do so. Thanks for your support. May God bless you.
