Mayor
For mayor, MorrivilleAction enthusiastically endorses Jackie Holcombe, an active and effective advocate for our community. Mrs. Holcombe will provide the new leadership that Morrisville desperately needs. She helped the grassroots effort against the 19% property tax increase supported by her opponent in 2008 and brings to the table a track record of fiscal responsibility.

As a small business owner, Mrs. Holcombe also understands the difficulties faced by businesses large and small in these challenging economic times. Her responsive style of leadership and promotion of sustainable growth we can afford will serve the town well.

At Large
Tom Murry has served on the Morrisville Town Council since 2005. A fiscal conservative, Councilman Murry has never voted for a property tax increase. He is a strong advocate for citizen-driven efforts to increase public safety and government efficiency such as the Morrisville Community Emergency Response Team and the Morrisville Budget Performance Assessment Panel. Councilman Murry has frequently called for more citizen input opportunities on important issues facing the Town. MorrisvilleAction is pleased to endorse Councilman Murry.

District 2
For District 2, MorrisvilleAction endorses Steve Diehl. Since moving to Morrisville in 2001, Steve has been a tireless advocate for citizens. Whether on Town Advisory Committees, an often heard voice of reason at Public Hearings, or in news reports from local media, Mr. Diehl has consistently supported resident residents' interests. MorrisvilleAction believes Steve Diehl will provide the leadership needed to move Morrisville forward in a fiscally responsible manner.
