Republicans Pick Candidate
•July 1, 2020•
At the regular June meeting, the Moultrie County Republican Central Committee voted to slate John Fayhee as a candidate for Moultrie County Board. John will be replacing Kevin McReynolds who earlier in June filed the necessary paperwork to remove his name as a candidate for re-election.
Kevin’s term on the county board will end when the board re-organizes in December 2020 after the general election. Kevin has faithfully served the citizens of Moultrie County for several years as a county board member.
As the owner of the Sullivan Marina and Campgrounds and The Northend Pub and Grill, John will bring a valuable perspective to the county board. Both of these businesses are located in an unincorporated area of the County. He sees first hand the need to work diligently to improve economic development in all areas of the county. He has worked closely with both state and federal organizations to improve the County’s competitiveness.
Being both a social and fiscal conservative, John sees the need for the County to adopt a common sense budget that provides for the funding of necessary services for all citizens of the county from a variety of sources.
John joins incumbents Neil Bryan and Elizabeth Houser as well as newcomer Larry Baker as the slate of four Republican candidates for Moultrie County Board.
John has been a resident of Moultrie County for over twenty years and along with his wife, Kayla, are parents of three young children. He looks forward to visiting with as many county residents as possible prior to the election.
