"I am endorsing Bob Stubbe's candidacy to become the next Mayor of Papillion.
His years of selfless service to the city as a Planning Commissioner and City Councilor have provided a firm foundation for a smooth transition of leadership. He knows the city: it's people, their wants and needs, the city budget, and its staff. As a candidate, he has concrete ideas to lead us into the next decade.
Bob will be receiving my vote in November, and I urge you to support him as well.
- Becky Hoch, Papillion City Council Ward III

"It is with great enthusiasm that I endorse Bob Stubbe for Mayor!
My experience working alongside Bob as a City Council member during my time as the Papillion City Clerk, as well as at the City of Omaha, has shown me his commitment to public service and his vision for the City of Papillion.
Throughout his time on the City Council, I have witnessed firsthand Bob’s dedication to our community. As a member of the Papillion La Vista Community School Board, I have consulted and worked with Bob to achieve goals for the district that also benefit the City of Papillion. I am just one example of the many relationships Bob has built over the years with community members to make Papillion a great place to live.
Bob is a leader and true public servant that helped shape the great City we live in today. He will keep the momentum going for our growing City."
- Elizabeth Butler, Papillion La Vista Schools Board Member

"As a long term City Council member and retired principal, l've spent my career identifying leaders who lead with integrity and expertise. That is why I am proud to endorse my colleague, Bob Stubbe, for Mayor of Papillion.
Serving along with Bob on the Council, I have seen his commitment to our community firsthand. He has deep experience from serving on the planning commission and City Council. Bob is committed to managing the city's growth while protecting our neighborhoods and parks that make our city home.
In my years as an educator, I learned leaders are those who listen, analyze and act for a greater good. Bob is that leader.
Join me in voting for Bob Stubbe for Mayor."
- James Glover, Papillion City Council Member | Ward I

"I’ve known Bob personally and professionally for over 20 years and have had the privilege of serving alongside him on the Papillion City Council for the last 3 1/2 years. I admire Bob’s ability to lead with a steady, calm presence.
Bob is a trustworthy, fiscally conservative public servant and his experience, wisdom and thoughtful leadership style will serve the City of Papillion well. I wholeheartedly endorse Bob Stubbe to be Papillion’s next Mayor."
- Dave Fanslau, Papillion City Council Member | Ward I

"In my 20 years leading the Papio-Missouri River NRD, I've seen how critical strong leadership is to our regional infrastructure. The partnership between Papillion and the NRD has built the flood control and recreation that define this community.
To continue this progress, Papillion needs a leader who understands both the technical complexities of a growing city and the ethical duty to protect its citizens. Bob Stubbe is that leader. With his deep engineering background and proven service on the City Council, Bob has the expertise and integrity to keep Papillion safe and thriving. I am proud to endorse Bob Stubbe for Mayor."
- John Winkler, General Manager | Papio Missouri NRD

I am writing to ask for your vote for Bob Stubbe for Mayor of Papillion. During the 18 years Bob’s been
on the Papillion City Council, he’s served alongside me as the Ward IV City Council representative. I’ve
voted for him in that spot and, before he won election, I voted against him. I have history with Bob
Stubbe. You can look up Bob’s qualifications on his website and I won’t spend time with specifics. It’s
enough for me to just say: Bob’s the Most Qualified Candidate. So, he gets my vote.
I’m a life-long registered Democrat. I’ve never voted for a Republican for any state or federal partisan
office. I likely never will. Their views on how government should serve people differ from mine. So, my
Democrat friends have asked why I’d vote for Republican Bob Stubbe for Papillion Mayor.
Over the past 30+ years as a city employee and a city councilmember, I’ve seen many city mayors do
that job. That experience tells me the job is a management job and presents few social or political
decisions that cause political strife and differences. So, I’ve voted for Republicans for Mayor in two
cities where I’ve lived and I’ve been pleased with my vote.
Bob Stubbe has years of management experience in MUD, the City of Omaha, and the City of Papillion.
During our time together in city government, he’s made management decisions I’ve agreed with, and
decisions I did not. But our differences have never made me question his ability to manage a
government entity well, we just saw the management needs differently. Bob’s opponent in this year’s
Papillion Mayoral election, a former Democrat, stands far behind Bob in his ability to properly manage
Papillion government as the city continues to grow as the best place to live.
For these very practical reasons that best serve to provide Papillion residents and their SID neighbors
with a continued high quality of life, I’m voting for Bob Stubbe to be the next Papillion Mayor. I
encourage you to do that too.

Papillion City Councilmember, Ward IV
Omaha Deputy City Attorney, Retired
