CORBIN —
To the people of Whitley County,
I hope that everyone had a wonderful holiday season! I wanted to say “thank you” to all of my supporters in this brief election cycle. I am very proud of the campaign that I was able to run. I tried to run a campaign that had integrity, honesty and humility. Just as I was taught from my family, church, school and university, all of which hold a special place in my heart.
Now that the campaign season is over, I ask that you join me and follow the lead of Senator Gregory as she leads our district. Pray that the Lord will lead her and our other representatives both local and federal to make the best decisions for all of the people.
Bill Conn,
Williamsburg
