"To the Voters of Tom Green County:

As we begin a new election cycle the most important race may arguably be that for Tom Green County Judge.  Of the candidates running one, Joe Hyde, stands out as the most qualified and is running for the right reasons.  Joe Hyde possesses a superior understanding of the facts and circumstances associated with the business of Tom Green County.

Joe Hyde graduated from Katy High School and then enrolled at Texas A & M University.  While attending TAMU Joe was a member of the Corps and graduated in the class of 1986.  Twenty years of active military service in the United States Air Force followed.  During his military career, Joe attained the rank of major and as a bomber pilot flew numerous combat missions over Iraq and Afghanistan braving anti-aircraft fire.  It was in the military that Joe developed outstanding leadership and organizational skills.  Joe has demonstrated his willingness and ability to fly into danger rather than run from it.

In civilian life, Joe (along with his wife Judy) has been successful in starting and building a thriving business – one that many told him would fail.  This business not only survived the recent pandemic but was managed well enough that not a single employee lost their job.  Joe has the knowledge and experience to meet tax filing and payroll deadlines, to generate adequate revenues and to prepare budgets and then manage the business to stay within those budgets ensuring the longevity of the business.

Joe has developed an impressive knowledge of cutting-edge technology and computer systems and has mastered their applications - skills that will be invaluable in performing the duties and functions of the County Judge.

Maybe Joe’s most important qualifications are his unyielding work ethic, his dedication to honesty and fairness and his genuine desire to serve the community.

To me the choice is clear.  Vote for someone with knowledge and maturity who will fight for the citizens of Tom Green County.  Vote Joe Hyde for Tom Green County Judge.

Thank you for your consideration."
