My husband, J Stucki, is running for re-election as Center Township Board Member, and I’m proud to support him. 🇺🇸
Center Township is home in the deepest sense for J. As a fourth-generation resident, his roots are here, and so are the people and community he cares about so deeply.
He brings 43 years with the Evansville Fire Department, 32 years of membership in Teamsters Local 215, and eight years of experience serving on the Center Township Board.
That combination of public service, board experience, and longstanding community ties is why I believe J has so much to offer Center Township. I would be grateful for your vote to help him continue serving our community.
