Dear Editor,
It wasn’t too long ago that our Hamilton County District 3 Commissioner took his seat as a first-time politician with no political experience.
I, too, know the value of hard work, commitment, responsibility and the value of a dollar. And I, too, was encouraged by residents and community leaders to run for Commissioner.
My name is Charlie McMillan Jr. and I am running for Hamilton County Commissioner, District 2, in the June 2 Primary Election.
All registered voters in Hamilton County can vote for me.
I am 57 years old, a Noblesville native and a 1981 graduate of Noblesville High School.
I have worked my entire life in downtown Noblesville. I am currently chairman of the Hamilton County Board of Zoning Appeals, South District, and a member of the Hamilton County Plan Commission Comprehensive Plan Update Committee to help facilitate the county’s 2020 Comprehensive Plan.
I offer a new face and new views, drawing from my years of living in Hamilton County and my vast knowledge of county projects. I have experience in solving problems, leading boards and dealing and communicating with the public.
My 73-year-old opponent, who has served in this position for 30 years, has easily brought in more than $56,000 in campaign contributions since Jan. 1, many from out-of-town attorneys, businessmen, developers, engineers and politicians.
As a first-time candidate, I am not part of the good ole boys network and don’t owe any favors to any contractors, engineering firms or political action committees.
I have integrity, transparency, work ethic and dependability.
I feel the need to offer voters a choice in this election. I am a worker for the people and am not a career politician. I am ready to roll up my sleeves and work for the next four years.
I ask you to be a part of history … for change.
Please show your support with a vote for Charlie McMillan Jr. for Hamilton County Commissioner.
