Stuckart starts strong

While the August primary election is still a few months away, you may have already noticed signs appearing in support of Ben Stuckart for City Council president.

I am not surprised to see and hear that significant support is already building behind this candidate. Last month, this campaign set a record for the most contributions in the first month of a local City Council race. Ben will bring a unique background from both the business and nonprofit sector to the City Council. In each of these arenas, he has forged partnerships that have produced significant and lasting results.

I have known Ben my entire life and know he has the vision, drive and experience to bring positive changes to City Council. Keep your eye out for this energetic candidate, or visit www.benstuckart.com to learn more.
