“While it is an honor to have so many endorsements coming in from law enforcement, my former colleagues, and the legal community at large, the most important endorsement is from you, the Citizens. I pledge to you that I will uphold the public trust in our State Attorney’s Office. That public trust cannot and should not be taken lightly. If you agree, I appreciate your vote on or before August 20, 2024.”
We are honored to have such widespread and diverse support of community leaders across 6 counties. Some of them will be featured here during the campaign.
“In 2006, our daughter Tonya was murdered. My family was still in mourning and shock when we met with Larry Basford, who was assigned to the case. Larry was compassionate and assured us in a professional way that he would do his very best to make the criminal justice system work for us. The man who killed Tonya was convicted of first-degree murder and is now serving a life sentence. I really feel blessed to know Larry. It’s wonderful that he is willing to serve our community in this new role. He is a good man I support him fully in his campaign.”
