Dear Editor:
I'm writing to express my support for Doug Overbey for the state senate in the upcoming Aug. 7 primary. As a long-standing member of this community, I have seen Representative Overbey's hard work for our county, including supporting veterans and protecting our children.
He has helped elect strong Republican conservative leaders such as Jimmy Duncan, Howard Baker, Lamar Alexander, Bob Corker and Fred Thompson. He helped restart the Blount County Young Republicans and was parliamentarian for the State Republican Executive Committee.
Furthermore, Doug has always working vigorously to promote conservative ideals such as the sanctity of life, low taxes, economic growth and less government waste in Blount County and in Nashville.
I truly believe we can trust Doug to continue to carry the conservative message for our county to the state senate just as he has in the house of representatives. His history, character and actions will serve Blount County well in Nashville.
Sincerely,
Mike Lewis
