***********Christie Coleman Stiltner**********
Candidate for nomination of
CIRCUIT COURT CLERK
I am thrilled to speak to you about my candidacy for Circuit Court Clerk of Buchanan County. I am committed to making a POSITIVE change with a FRESH vision in our community. With over 20 years of experience in public service with 9 years as a paralegal, I have the knowledge and skills to effectively manage the Clerk's office. I will ensure that it runs efficiently and effectively. My vision for the office is to implement new technologies that will improve services for our citizens, streamline processes, payment options and increase transparency. As Clerk I will ensure that all records and documents are READILY available, and that all transactions are conducted with the utmost integrity, while keeping confidential information secure.
The Clerk's office deals with everything from marriage certificates, gun permits, criminal/civil matters to wills and estates and much more. While dealing with those issues may seem like another day at the office for folks who work there, it can be an intimidating feeling walking into a courthouse dealing with very weighty issues. I believe in putting PEOPLE FIRST and will work tirelessly to ensure that EVERYONE is served with RESPECT, DIGNITY and KINDNESS. I believe that by bringing a FRESH perspective, I can help make the office more accessible to EVERYONE.
I believe that my experience, skills, commitment and compassion make me the best Candidate for the Circuit Court Clerk of Buchanan County. I am excited about the opportunity to serve my community. Therefore, I HUMBLY, ask for your vote on June 20th and again on Novemeber 7th.
May God Bless You,
Christie Coleman Stiltner
