My name is David Croft, and I am seeking re-election as Merrimack County Sheriff. My candidacy is being endorsed by the Local 633 Teamsters.
I am a former United States Marine, with 35-plus years in New Hampshire Law Enforcement. My successes include increasing security in all five Courthouses, increased training on how to deal with folks struggling with mental health issues and substance use disorders, and I instilled mandatory training in de-escalation techniques.
Additionally, I updated our Communication Department to increase the safety of the 17 agencies we dispatch for by using federal monies.
I’d appreciate your vote on November 8 so that I can keep the momentum going. Thank you.
