Glenn Farley is the Republican nomination for State Representative for the 116th District. Mr. Farley has been a resident of this district for 38 years and aspires to be "A NEW VOICE" for the district.
A voice that will speak clearly for the citizens of the 116th district to bring greater recognition and better representation for Southern Illinois. Mr. Farley is Reagan style Republican, a strong Constitutionalist who is Pro Life, Pro first and second amendments and very conservative. He is proud of and truly loves the people of Southern Illinois. He asks that we strive together to effect change for our district and he would be honored to be our "NEW VOICE" in Southern Illinois.
Given the opportunity to serve the district his priorities would be state budget responsibility, jobs and lower taxes.
These would most directly affect the people of Southern Illinois and build a strong local economy and promote small business.
