I am Articia Bomer, a life long resident of Wayne County. I am a mother of 10 biological children. I was raised in Wayne County, educated in Wayne County, worked in the UAW for over 15 years in Wayne County, bought my first car in Wayne County, been homeless in Wayne County, been overworked and underpaid in Wayne County, went to religious institutions in Wayne County, shop for groceries in Wayne County. Now, I am running for Sheriff in Wayne County.
  • I will uphold the Constitution in Wayne County. Any laws that are within the pages of the constitution, will be guarded and protected. No illegal mandate, gun ban, shutdowns by any local, state or federal laws will be enforced or followed. Anyone who attempts to break the laws attached to our constitutional rights, will come with consequences punishable by up to but not limited to jail time and or penalties or both. The people’s rights will be safeguarded against any attempt to infringe upon their rights and freedoms.
  • I will bring peace to Wayne County by creating a deterrence of criminal activity. I will be a champion for the people and their 2A rights. Statistics show that “guns” prevent an estimated 2.5 million crimes a year. Fact, property crime rates dropped, (especially burglaries). Every year, 400,000 life-threatening violent crimes are prevented using firearms. In a survey, 60% of convicted felons admitted that they avoided committing crimes when they thought the victim might be armed. Some felons even have reported that they avoided entering homes because they feared of being shot. I will not allow legal licensable people to be bombarded with “red flag” gun laws. Guns do not load or shoot by themselves. We will seek to find wreck-less “people”.
  • I will protect your property, my property, our property by any means necessary. This includes the property of “life” of law abiding citizens and inmates who are housed in the Wayne County Jails. Life is property. I will protect life at all cost. Our underaged children are our properties. I will protect juveniles from being harmed, adult inmates from being harmed and all of my Sheriff deputies protected at all cost. Our minds are our individual properties. I will bring protection and a peace of mind to all who reside, work, play, rest in Wayne County.
Community Corrections. It takes a whole village to raise children, it takes an entire community to keep them out of trouble. I plan on bringing a new system of social services that will bring about financial stability, mental health healing that will ultimately boost morale. Working with all local, state and government agencies to get on one accord with a universal plan to help correct the communities before they become infected within.
I look up to Jesus Christ, a man who I was raised to keep first in my life. I follow his examples of passion for life, forgiveness and love. I want to bring peace and happiness to all.

Communication skills. You must know how to articulate, relate, and convey the community’s concerns in a timely manner. You must have understanding and patience to deal effectively with the issues as they relate to each individual situation. You must maintain a safe and peaceful environment while operating the county as well as maintaining the county.
I possess good morals and ethics. I love being the peacemaker and the person who meditates a difficult task into a more easier and flexible way of life.
Maintenance and Operations You must maintain a safe and peaceful county while operating the county in a manner that pleases the people who live in it.
I would like to leave behind my spirit of peace and tranquility and the fact that I was the right choice for the role.
My first job, was working at McDonald’s. I worked 1 year while still attending high school.
The Holy Bible….. it gives me basic knowledge and understanding about what is expected of me in my journey through life.
If I was a fictional character, I would choose to be “Elsa” from the movie “Frozen”. I would use my freezing abilities to put a freeze on future fraud in our elections. I would also freeze out crime.

Trying to convince myself that I should have been involved in this process years ago.
Q: Why did the political fish swim backwards?

A: The fish swim backwards to avoid a good de “bait”
“If you don’t have financial literacy, you have no business at all”. The government sends each City, State, County funding annually to be allocated towards projects that help people to become financially successful, independent and productive. There is a need for more education as it relates to what our tax dollar can give us back in return through annual contracts, grants ad loans.
