MEILINGER WILL RUN FOR STATE SENATE DISTRICT 5
(Greer, SC) Today Mike Meilinger announced his intent to run again for the State Senate District 5 seat. Meilinger narrowly lost in a special election run-off in 2006.
“For the last few months I’ve been seriously considering running again.” Meilinger said. “Upon hearing of Senator Vaughn’s retirement, I wanted to make my intentions clear. I plan to seek election in the Republican Primary for the State Senate District 5 seat, and will run an aggressive campaign based on state government spending restraint, and fighting excessive taxes, governmental regulations and fees. I will also make a priority of my campaign, and in office to take all steps state government can in fighting illegal immigration.”
Meilinger went on to say “I want to represent the people of the 5th District. I want them to know that I will work hard, and that I will be available and accessible to listen to their concerns about state government.”
A long time upstate resident and father of five, Mike Meilinger is an expert witness in forensic accounting and plans to use his expertise in combating growing government spending and waste.
