Welcome to the David Crane for Sheriff of Lake County campaign website. Thank you for taking the time to visit my website and to learn about my positions. As the Republican candidate for Lake County Sheriff, I have a different viewpoint on how the Lake County Sheriff’s Department should be run.

I believe that it is the responsibility of the Sheriff of Lake County to represent all its citizens no matter where they choose to live. I believe that the Sheriff must be fiscally responsible, because the money that I spend is not my money but yours. I believe that it is the Sheriff’s responsibility to work to protect our schools, and our children. I believe that each child has a right to a safe learning environment. I believe that by working together, communities and law enforcement we can and will make a difference in the lives of our fellow citizens especially our children.

Crime in Lake County affects everyone, no matter where you live, and I believe it will take everyone to fight back to make our communities safer for everyone. I understand that each community has its own issues and that a solution that works in one community may not work in another. As Sheriff, I believe it is my responsibility to listen to each community and to find a way to help them solve their own issues, because there is no one solution to every problem.

If you are passionate about my vision for Lake County and the Lake County Sheriff's Department and are interested in volunteering, please contact us. Not only do I need your vote to make our vision a reality, but we need your time and talent also. This is your opportunity to make a difference in your community.

As you go through my website, you will see that I am calling myself the “People's Sheriff”. I believe that all the citizens of Lake County, despite their political party preference seek to elect a sheriff who is dedicated and accountable to all citizens. If I am elected, I will seek to have an administration that reflects the communities of Lake County, and I will bring those talented individuals into my administration.

My overall vision is simple, I am accountable to you the voter no matter where you choose to live or what political party you belong to. I will maintain an open-door policy, making myself, and my staff available to anyone who wishes to speak to me or my staff about an issue of importance to them.

I invite you to take a more in-depth look at my vision for the Lake County Sheriff's Office and our plan to protect and serve our communities. If you have any questions or concerns, please allow me the opportunity to speak to you either online, or in person at one of the many events that I will be attending throughout Lake County.
