Erie County Executive Brenton Davis to Seek Second Term

Erie County Executive Brenton Davis will announce his plans to seek a second term during a press conference at Fralo Industries later today, citing his three years of reform and rebuilding.
“Erie County is in a position to grow economically, with bold initiatives focused on serving the majority, not a chosen few,” Davis said. “From a newly established Department of Economic Development to the establishment of the first new industrial park in decades, Erie County has begun its long overdue turn toward prosperity. And there is much more yet to do.”
In his announcement, Davis rounded on “the old guard of political insiders” who have worked to block programs designed to grow jobs and promote fairness.
“I choose to focus my attention on the 267,000 Erie County residents who want progress and a County where their families can thrive,” Davis said
Davis is a retired Army Officer, enlisted Navy Veteran, and a building contractor. He also holds a Masters degree in Community and Economic Development/Applied Economics at Pennsylvania State University.
Davis cited the reopening of Erie County businesses and returning freedom of choice to individuals and parents of school children by lifting the County wide mask mandates while confronting COVID head on with testing and treatment centers as some of his first-term achievements.
“For too long, Erie leadership consisted of the same group of political insiders looking for ways to serve themselves at the expense of the majority. I have broken that mold in my first term and I’m ready to continue fighting for the working families of Erie County,” Davis said.
