Dear Editor, 

A recent mailer asked: “Who is Wendy Hannah?” I wish to answer the question. Wendy is the answer to our prayers in Cumberland County. When Pat Scales retired, we prayed for a competent attorney in our county who wanted to be our next Commonwealth’s Attorney. 

Wendy was appointed by the 10th Judicial Circuit Court judges as the Interim Commonwealth’s Attorney for Cumberland County after submitting her qualifications for review.  Her impeccable character, stellar legal knowledge, and success in the courtroom wholeheartedly support the judges’ decision.  Now it is our responsibility to keep Wendy in the position she rightly deserves.  Vote for Wendy Hannah for Cumberland County Commonwealth’s Attorney.
