Candidate Announcement: Michael Shane Wilcher

Michael Shane Wilcher seeking seat in third district

Submitted by Michael Shane Wilcher

I want your vote for one of the two District 3 County Commissioner seats at Election time in August 2022. Why? Because I know what it is like to be ignored, made fun of, and even attacked when presenting local government officials with their own improper and unlawful actions. When it happened to me, I chose to stand up to them.

I can give you the same old, same old.... I was born and raised here... I raised children here... I've always been employed here...I went to church here...I support and participate in charitable events and organizations here...on and on. But when I walk into the county administration building to discuss and vote on issues that affect you, District 3, and Warren County, it only matters that I do what the people of the Third District ask me to. That's it....and I have in the past and I will again if you choose to vote for me.

Do you know who is the only county commissioner in the history of Warren County to ever craft and pass a resolution giving YOU and all the people of Warren County the option of speaking at every local government meeting? Do you know who is the only county commissioner to ever address elected officials across the state to make changes to the warrant writing procedure to require actual evidence of an offense before issuing an arrest warrant? Do you know who is the only county commissioner to ever stand not only for a Warren County family when a local government entity seized their land by eminent domain, but also a Coffee County family as well? Do you know who is the only county commissioner to ever win Warren County's Dancing with Our Stars event to benefit Relay for Life? I can't be serious all the time, but it was me (That last one largely due to my dance partner).

If you want someone who you know will stand up to those in the wrong on your behalf, go check my voting record and resolutions I passed in my previous four-year term. Because of the support I had from the 3rd District, I was able to do things no other county commissioner ever tried, let alone accomplished. I want to again.

My name is Michael Shane Wilcher. I live at 546 Greenwood Drive in Mountain Green Estates off Viola Road. My email is warrencountywilcher@gmail.com - I want to represent YOU in the county commission. Keep this as my contract with YOU. Please remember me in early voting and on election day 2022. Thank you.
