Dalton Harrison talked to the crowd at the 106th Annual Lone Oak Picnic

Election 2014Cunningham, TN – Montgomery County Commissioner for District 6 Dalton Harrison spoke  at the 106th Annual Lone Oak Picnic held by the Central Civitan Club.

“I’m going to do something  a little different. This afternoon you’ve heard people tell you want you want to hear to get elected. I’m not going to do that,” stated Harrison. “I’m going to tell you the truth and let you make up your own mind.”

“The truth is, it’s a whole lot easier to stand back and tell people what your against. It’s takes a little more character and courage to step up and tell people what your for,” said Harrison.

“20 million dollar renovation at Montgomery Central High School, I was and am for that. Our children deserve that. They deserve a good place to learn,” Harrison stated. “New volunteer fire station in Cumberland Heights, I was and am for that. Our people out here need quicker response times and a reduction in their homeowners insurance.”
