I would like to give my recommendation for David Henry as Municipal Court Judge.

I have known David Henry for 22 years. I saw him prosecute numerous felony cases during my law enforcement career. I’ve seen him for the past three years prosecute cases in Municipal Court. David was always competent, knowledgeable and he has a strong work ethic. He is a fair man that treats everyone with respect. He has recently been appointed Judge of the Clinton County Municipal Court by Governor DeWine.

I am writing as a retiree and a grandmother who plans to vote YES on the Wilmington City Schools income tax levy. I encourage others to do the same. Election Day is May 2, although early voting is underway.
