Dear Residents of Polk County,

The time for change is now. Together, with your help, we can continue to make Polk County a great place to live. Seeking new businesses and industries for Polk County to assure opportunities for employment, along with public safety, will be my top priorities.

I have been called “the voice of the Panthers” and along with your help, I would like to become “your voice” in Polk County.

Sincerely,
Mike Ainsworth
