I am happily casting my vote for Doug Rhoades.

I believe strongly that he would be the best candidate for D.A. in the upcoming election. I have known Doug for many years and have attended most of the debates that have taken place in this county. I stand behind his ideas.

Over the past twenty years, I have resided in this county as a school psychologist and active community member. I have personally and professionally experienced the need for careful management of law enforcement from someone knowledgeable, willing to dedicate their time and energy, and to stay abreast of the current best practices.

Hopefully, others will take notice of both candidate’s various positions and use their good judgment to ensure that the best candidate wins the upcoming election.

I am writing this in support of Doug Rhoades for the office of District Attorney.  Having served on the Board Of Supervisors for two terms, I have great concerns for the fiscal well being of our county.  I know Doug to be a long time citizen of Lake County, and I feel that he knows the budget process and will prioritize the expenses of the District Attorney’s office.
 
His having experience as a Deputy Sheriff and a Public Defender, he can look for a  more efficient way to run the office.
 
We must find a better way to operate county government.  The District Attorney’s office has been passed down for too many years, it is time for change.  We need to make a change from the same as Usual.
 
Therefore I am supporting Dough Rhoades for the office of District Attorney

It is easy to be conservative Republican and support Doug for the position of District Attorney. I have known Doug since his high school days. His journey in life is one that puts him in the position of “Best Qualified” to be our District Attorney. He has proven himself a winner. He is always fair. His campaign words are his oath and his dedication.

I first met Doug when he was the Sheriff’s Bailiff at the courthouse.  He was calm, professional, and unflappable, and restored order in what could be called “controlled chaos” in a courtroom.  He will continue to bring these sorely-needed qualities into his new job as District Attorney.

I sponsored him for Lakeport Rotary membership because he embodies the four-way Rotary test–”Of the things he thinks, says or does, “is it the truth?’, “is it fair to all concerned?”, “will it build goodwill and better friendships”, and “will it be beneficial to all concerned?”  YES, to all of the above!

Doug has both high ethical standards in his profession and in his life, and many years of experience in law and law enforcement.

Doug combines intelligence, knowledge and good judgment. I believe he will make an excellent District Attorney and have no doubt that he is the best candidate for that job. His background gives him the experience needed and coupled with his perspective, I believe that he will focus our resources where they will do the most good for our community.

I’ve known Doug for over 20 years. I served on the Kelseyville School
Board with him for many years, watched as he put himself through law
school and marvelled at his intelligence. He will be a great District
Attorney.
- Mike Adams


Doug Rhoades is an experienced criminal lawyer who will bring intelligence, good judgment, and common sense to the District Attorney’s office.  I am confident that he will set the right priorities for the DA’s Office, and will not waste taxpayer money on frivolous prosecutions.  He will bring respect back to the DA’s Office.
