I would like to throw my support for Marc Gravitt in the East Ridge City Commission this election.
Marc has been a true asset to our community with his involvement in the East Ridge Merchant Association and an a successful businessman. Informed voting isn’t an easy task. We are faced with a barrage of clever ads from all sides, so it is not easy for voters to make an informed decision. That is unless you take the time and effort to search for facts of why certain people are running.
Are all the people running (I believe seven, we only elect two) for our commission committed to helping East Ridge? Marc is running for the best reason, that of trying not to pump up his ego or the so called power of office, but of trying to give back his business expertise to his community that he loves so well.
I ask for you to consider Marc and your number one choice and on a side note Mr. Manning as your second choice.
