Local small businesses have chosen their candidate for the open seat in State House District 85 covering Chapin and Irmo in Lexington County in the June 14th Republican Primary. Those businesses have endorsed Conservative Republican businessman Jay Kilmartin. The endorsements launched the Small Business Coalition for Kilmartin.
“I am thankful for the support of these important local leaders who have the pulse of everyday citizens,” said Kilmartin. “Small businesses face the trials of surviving every day and the obstacles faced during the COVID-19 era on top of the failed policies of the Biden administration. I am honored to join these businesses to lead a South Carolina comeback.”
Coalition Chairman John Eckstrom of Carolina Business Equipment was excited to endorse Kilmartin:
“Jay has not only been successfully running his three businesses, he has also been an advocate for others,” Eckstrom added “Jay understands the plight businesses face on a daily basis and knows the policies which will get the government off of our backs.”
Co-Chair Suzanne Zelling of Caring Healthcare, Inc. added that “Jay not only knows how to create a successful business climate, he has also been a pillar in the community, giving countless time to community causes. Jay will also work tirelessly to ensure our businesses will not suffer job-killing shutdowns ever again.”
