Onondaga County Sheriff race backed for Walsh
The Herald-Journal endorses incumbent Kevin Walsh for a second four year term. Walsh, a Republican, leads a 600-strong department with new radios in patrol cars and a community policing program. He moved custody to the Justice Center and secured civil rights matters while trimming overtime costs. Opponent Steven Thompson, deputy chief of the Syracuse Police, offers capable leadership. We see no reason to unseat Walsh.
