Hamilton County Mayor and Senator speak on challenges ahead of Governor’s Race
Saturday night, three Republican gubernatorial candidates campaigned at the Hamilton County Republican Party’s annual Lincoln Day Dinner.
During a press conference, State Senator Bo Watson and Hamilton County Mayor Weston Wamp highlighted accomplishments they say have benefited local communities.
“A lot of times, Bo and I are head down working. You forget sometimes that you’ve got to look up and share the work we’re doing,” Wamp said. “In just four years, the percentage of our students who are ready for college or a career upon graduation has increased by 50 percent. If it had gone up 10 percent, it would be significant. Imagine the cascading positive effect that has on families.”
