There are now more 'Re-Elect Sheriff Minzey' placards and yard signs than there are voters in Washtenaw County

We get it Sheriff man, you're running for re-election. We're also aware that there are rules and regulations about picking up your campaign signs after the electioneering. We'll hold you to those rules on each and every sign.

We also have the idea that all the Minzey signs in front of the student rental and frat properties isn't some swell in support from the kids. It's landlords who would never put a yard sign in their own yards advertising for the current Sheriff. Also, are ALL the businesses sporting candidate signs going political on us? Might make some citizens less likely to support your business.

Our 2¢ on the Sheriff vs the Commission on citizen oversight

The Ypsi City Desk firmly believes that they should NEVER EVER have to read this:

"Minzey responded by creating his own advisory board"

In NO way shape or form should the Sheriff be creating his own hand crafted oversight board. The stakes for citizens is far too high. If Sheriff Minzey thinks he only answers to citizens on election day, Washtenaw County could use a new Sheriff.
