Submitted by Jason Bullock, Democratic incumbent Second District Magistrate
I, Jason Wayne Bullock, announce my candidacy for Beaver Dam Second District Magistrate. Serving the good people of the Second District for the past eight years has been an honor, and I humbly ask for your support to continue serving as your magistrate.
Ohio County has been my home for 37 years -- the past 20 years in Beaver Dam. My wife, Kara, and I never considered starting our family and raising our children Cole, Addison, and Colin anywhere else.
I learned the importance of faith, the value of community and the necessity of hard work from my parents, Wayne and Ruth (Ford) Bullock of Beaver Dam. Those values where only reinforced by Kara’s parents, Jerry and Judy (Tichenor) Bevil of Hartford.
Kara and I consider ourselves very lucky to be able to build a life in the same familiar place where generations of our families are rooted. Currently, Kara serves as the County Assistant Superintendent with the Ohio County Board of Education, and I have had the privilege of working with the outstanding students, parents, and educators at Beaver Dam Elementary as their Family Resource Coordinator. Working daily with our bright kids constantly reminds me why preparing them for future success will always be one of the fiscal court’s most sacred responsibilities!
Helping provide a bright future for our kids will always be my top priority!
While we certainly celebrate when one of our own finds success outside of our own communities, I have a vision for a robust local economy so that more folks who want to build their lives can find jobs close to home or start their own successful businesses. The current fiscal court started the OCEDA Foundation in order to strengthen local economic development efforts. If elected, I will work hard to continue our momentum while seizing every opportunity to help private employers add good jobs with good pay.
Perhaps the most important lesson I’ve learned is that everything we do as a community is connected to everything else we do. Good jobs are connected to creating communities where employers want to live. Things like good roads, clean roadways, great recreational facilities, strong schools, and feeling safe in our homes are every bit as important as more traditional economic concerns when it comes to competing with surrounding areas for a company to build a new plant in our county.
As your magistrate, I will listen to everyone’s good ideas and work hard to implement those that have the best chance to make Ohio County even better, even stronger, and even more beautiful than it is today!
I love serving the people of the Second District and Ohio County, and I ask you for your vote and your continued support. Please contact me anytime to let me know what’s most important to you. I can be reached by phone at 256-5506, by sending an email to jason.bullock@ohio.kyschools.us, or just message me on Facebook.
The Book of Proverbs says that without a vision, the people will perish. I know you have a vision and want great things for Ohio County just like I do. Working together toward a common vision, we will see great things continue to happen in our communities!
Thank You,
Jason W. Bullock
