We received an email from the Egor E.K. Emery Campaign today indicating the Orlando Sentinel endorsed Egor EK Emery for Lake County Commission, District 4. We couldn't agree more. The Sentinel summarized the situation perfectly.
Orlando Sentinel endorses Egor Emery along with Lake business and community leaders
Republicans and Democrats say Emery is the best candidate, local issues are not partisan and simply need the best candidate.
Orlando Sentinel Endorses Egor E.K. Emery for Lake Commission District 4
- October 12, 2010
"Democrat E.K. Emery is more likely to stand up to the county's powerful development interests than is Republican Leslie Campione, a real-estate attorney who also has represented several cities.
Of the two, it's clear that Mr. Emery will be a more reliable check on the County Commission's residential growth excesses, especially now that two key environmental defenders have been voted out.
Mr. Emery understands that Lake can't build itself out of economic trouble with more rooftops. He's an advocate of nurturing small businesses and targeting new industry that'll bring in workers to fill all those empty homes.
Ms. Campione has deep roots in the county but it's not hard to figure out why development interests are pumping money into her campaign.
We endorse E.K. Emery"
Over the past 10 days Lake County leaders and business people piled on endorsements for Egor Emery running for Lake County Commission, District 4.

Dear Fellow Voters -
My main opponent is a developer's lawyer with strong ties to the residential homebulding industry. When her family's business (Shamrock Homes) was acquired by M/I Homes in 2005, family members became employees of M/I, and Ms. Campione's law practice became a closing agent for M/I Homes. In 2010 M/I Homes received $31 million dollars in taxpayer bailout money through the Worker, Homeownership and Business Assistance Act of 2009 (NY Times story).
I am not tied to the development industry and I'll be able to better represent Lake's citizens to achieve genuine economic development, support our small businesses, create jobs, and protect our natural resources. I own a small business (Daytona Safety Crew, Inc.) and I work for Sun Cycles, Tavares, in sales and information technology.
Don't let Campione buy her way onto the County Commission with tons of donations from the TARP2bailed-out overdevelopment industry.
Please consider a donation of $20, $50 or more to a maximum of $500. All donations are appreciated and you can make one quickly and securely at my website (through secure PayPal service).
I ask for your vote for Lake County Commission, District 4.
Please visit my website www.EgorEmery.com for more information.
Sincerely,
Egor E.K. Emery
