To the Editor:

To the Citizens of Southampton County and the City of Franklin. My Fellow Citizens, Josh A. Wyche, Sr. began his law enforcement career as one of my deputies. Josh has worked in each of the divisions of the Southampton County Sheriff’s Office. He has worked his way up from a deputy, assigned to the jail, to the honor of serving as your Sheriff. Josh knows the responsibility and has demonstrated the duties that are required of the Sheriff. He has dedicated his entire career to the service of the citizens of the County and City. 

He is a man of the people. As your Sheriff for 28 years, no one knows better than the right man to be our Sheriff. Josh is the right man for Southampton County and the City of Franklin. I ask you to join me on Nov. 7 and re-elect Josh A. Wyche, Sr., Sheriff.

Vernie W. Francis, Sheriff (Retired)

Southampton County
