Vermilion County Board Chairman Mike Marron says Republican Board members will caucus in the next couple of weeks to nominate someone to replace him. Marron has been picked to fill the unexpired term of State Representative Chad Hays when Hays leaves office on September 7th. Democrats on the County Board will also have the opportunity to nominate someone to be the new board chairman.
Marron was asked whether he thinks his selection to fill the Illinois House seat gives him an unfair advantage over Cynthia Cunningham of Saint Joseph, the Democrat he faces on this fall’s ballot….
Marron says he is honored and humbled to be selected to fill out the remainder of Representative Hays’ term.
Republicans have announced their caucus will be held July 30th at 6:00 p.m. at Vermilion County Title at 112 North Vermilion Street in Danville. The meeting will be open to the public to comply with the Open Meetings Act.
