Letter: Merchant's business experience makes him fit for Sumter mayor

Posted

As a consultant and start-up business owner, bringing jobs and improving the quality of life for our citizens is very important to me. Having seen a variety of changes in Sumter the last 20 years, I believe we are on the cusp of doing even better things.

This is one of the many reasons I support David Merchant for mayor. As a businessman who created his company from the ground up, David understands what it takes to create jobs and nurture investments in our infrastructure.

If you haven't done so already, I encourage you to vote for David Merchant, mayor.
