GOA Endorses Jeremy Markham for Erie County Sheriff

Jeremy Markham is the Gun Owners’ Choice Candidate for Erie County Sheriff

I am delighted to endorse Jeremy Markham for Sheriff of Erie County.

Gun owners were massively betrayed with the election of incumbent Democrat Sheriff Chris Campanelli four years ago.

The truth about Sheriff Chris Campanelli’s re-election campaign is now glaringly obvious: he’s not running for the people of Erie County, but for the interests of a powerful, out-of-state billionaire.

Michael Bloomberg’s Everytown for Gun Safety Action Fund poured in an astounding $200,000 to elect Campanelli in 2021, funding digital ads, mailers, and canvassing efforts. This isn’t local grassroots support; this is a clear attempt by an anti-Second Amendment organization, bankrolled by a New York City mogul, to buy influence and control Erie County’s top law enforcement officer.

Erie County voters deserve a sheriff who answers to them, not to a special interest group with deep pockets and an anti-constitutional agenda.

Because Sheriff Campanelli’s election was backed by an infusion of cash from Everytown, it is clear that he is bought and paid for. His loyalty is to the radical gun control lobby and its billionaire benefactor, not to the constitutional rights and values of Erie County citizens.

That’s why gun owners must defeat Bloomberg puppet Chris Campanelli and elect Jeremy Markham for Erie County Sheriff.

Jeremy has what it takes to be a first-rate sheriff. He is a law enforcement officer with 23 years of experience, including serving as an officer in the Wesleyville and Union City police departments. For the last 15 years, Jeremy served as an Erie County sheriff’s deputy.

Important for gun owners, Jeremy Markham scored a perfect 100% on his GOA sheriff’s candidate survey, ensuring that he will support and defend our God-given rights.

Here is what Jeremy Markham has to say in his own words regarding our God-given rights:

As a candidate for sheriff and proud supporter of the Second Amendment, I firmly believe that Article 1, Section 21 of the Pennsylvania Constitution and the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution protect every law-abiding citizen’s right to keep and bear arms, an essential freedom that safeguards all our other liberties. As sheriff, I will take an oath to protect these rights and stand as a firewall against any attempt to erode that fundamental Constitutional right.

Friend, we cannot let Bloomberg’s dirty New York City money dictate who leads Erie County’s sheriff’s department; that’s why gun owners must unite to defeat Chris Campanelli and elect a true patriot for sheriff.

So, in the November 4th general election, vote for GOA-endorsed Jeremy Markham for Erie County Sheriff and be sure to support his campaign.
