Elect Tyrone Garner for Mayor-CEO
Unified Government of Wyandotte County - Kansas City, Kansas
Hello I am Tyrone Garner and I am honored to announce that I am running for Mayor CEO of the Unified Government of Wyandotte County Kansas City Kansas. I am running because like you, I love Wyandotte County and all the potential it holds for greatness. Leading up to me filing for office, I’ve had the opportunity to speak with everyday people in Wyandotte County. The reoccurring theme with the people I spoke with is that they are tired of misguided and disengaged leadership, they are tired of the years of broken promises, they are tired of an administration that does not provide for everyone equitably, they are tired of high taxes, they are tired of burdensome BPU bills, they are tired of not having the goods and services they deserve, they are tired of their voices being ignored, and for some, they are tired of riding the merry go round to absolutely nowhere. These everyday people I have spoken to are concerned about where we are headed as a community, and they should be. This campaign believes that Wyandotte County deserves better.
