As a business owner and community member, Ron McCoy, a Democrat, has announced his candidacy for Lyon County Commission. In an interview with KVOE News, McCoy expressed his desire to give back to the community by serving in local government. If elected, his primary focus would be to attract and grow businesses throughout the county, particularly those that can afford to pay higher wages.
In the Second District race, which will be filled by Peck’s successor, McCoy is running as the lone Democrat against a Republican primary challenger. Meanwhile, in the Third District race set to replace longtime commissioner Rollie Martin, there are multiple candidates on the Republican side. Four Republicans have filed for this seat, along with one Democrat. The candidate filing deadline is fast approaching and soon we will know who will take over these positions.
