Erie County legislator John Bargnesi has introduced legislation to impose a 12 year limit on all county elected offices. Not surprisingly most legislators and Erie County Executive Mark Poloncarz are not in favor of limiting the length of time they can be in public office.

We don't have fair competitive elections in Erie County, which results in incumbents winning 90% of the time. We need term limits to move elected officials along and create opportunities for new ideas and new leaders.

We the undersigned support terms limits for the elected Erie County New York offices of Erie County Legislator, Erie County Clerk, Erie County Comptroller, Erie County District Attorney and Erie County Executive.

It should not be up to self interested politicians to decide the issue of term limits.

We call upon County Legislators and the County Executive to let the public vote
on whether to have term limits or not.
