Carson City supervisor ward 2

In the pleasantly warm evening air under the trees this past Wednesday, Maurice White, candidate for Carson City supervisor for Ward 2, held a meet and greet at Glen Eagles Restaurant on North Carson Street, and talked to an attentive and respectful audience of about 35-40 people.



It is my honor and pleasure to offer this endorsement of Maurice White for Carson City Supervisor, Ward 2. It takes only a moment talking with him to realize that Mo has outstanding qualifications for this office. He is passionate about Carson City, and he is very knowledgeable of local issues, down to the minutest details. He has the patience and friendly disposition to discuss them to any depth of understanding that you would care to tolerate. And he’s equally able to discuss them at the policy and philosophical level, if that’s your preference.

Since when does the Carson City Chamber of Commerce promote and back a political candidate. Is it ok that almost every Facebook post the Chamber makes is immediately posted on Ronni Hannaman’s election Facebook page. Is it odd that Hannaman’s page has virtually nothing about her campaign.

Now that the filing period for political candidates is over it is time for voters to consider the qualifications and politics of the filed candidates. What sort of person do you want representing you in the various seats that are up for election this cycle?

Maurice White is proud to announce his candidacy for Carson City Supervisor Ward 2. As a lifelong resident of Carson City Maurice enjoys the diversity of its residents and opportunities that the City provides. Borrowing the words of our retiring Mayor, Maurice looks forward to helping keep our City a “great place to live, work and play.”

Carson City Supervisor Lori Bagwell, local Hookah Lounge business owner Nathaniel Killgore and resident Aaron Sims have all thrown their hats in the ring for the position of Carson City Mayor. Carson City Mayor Bob Crowell is not seeking reelection after 11 years.

There is a lot of misinformation circulating regarding Carson City’s possible future involvement with the Empire Ranch Golf Course. I have heard and read many inaccurate statements regarding what actions, if any, the city might take in regards to the course. I want to help clear that up, and address the facts as I understand them.
