VILLAS - Democrat Kit Marlowe electronically filed petitions to run for deputy mayor of Lower Township March 31. He had also collected the signatures electronically.
According to a release, “Filing in person is more traditional. Filing by e-mail reduces the spread of a virus that has already claimed the lives of over 5,000 Americans,” Marlowe stated.
Marlowe, a retired engineer and health scientist, will run to support Chris South, who is running for mayor.
South stated, “When people cast their votes in November, they deserve a choice of who they would like in town hall.”
Marlowe is no stranger to local politics. He has run twice for Lower Township Council. He prepares taxes for older citizens through the county RSVP program, coordinates capital projects for Cape Hope, and performs advertising and fundraising for the East Lynne Theater Company.
“The mayor and deputy mayor help shape the community in which we live,” he said. “They should be persons whose values match those of the voters.”
Marlowe strongly advocates for transparency in local government and wants to offer new, creative solutions to some of the township’s problems.
If elected to council, Marlowe promises to keep all citizens informed of the actions of Council and will be open to their ideas on making Lower Township a safe, healthy, and prosperous community.
