#HolterForCanal

Progress with purpose

Canal Winchester is our home—with hardworking families, close neighbors, and a small-town culture that we all love. We need leadership that values these qualities, and who will fight for safety, community services and fiscal responsibility amid unprecedented growth. I'm here for that fight.

Quality of life

Growth can create cracks in the social fabric, letting crime slip through. I will fully back the sheriff's department and Madison Township P.D.

One more thing ...

The heart of my philosophy about local government is it should be small, efficient and run by the right people for the right reasons. I don't accept political donations, and as a member of council, I will donate any related salary to Canal-based charities.
