To the Voters of Grimes County!

I, Randall “Randy” Griffin am excited to announce that I am running for Grimes County Commissioner Precinct 1 for the Primary Election on March 3, 2020.

About me: I’m a family man, raised seven children and have 17 grandchildren. My son and six grandchildren attend Iola I.S.D. ranging from Pre-K through seventh. Presently, I am the Assistant Chief for the Iola Fire Department.

God has gifted me with the ability to work with my hands, as a diesel mechanic for over 30 years. I began working with Grimes County Road and Bridge in the Drainage Department as a Gradall Operator then transferred to the Iola district as their Mechanic. These great opportunities, and my desire to commit myself to improve the communities give me the experience to help the citizens of Precinct 1.

I am a fair and honest person. I will be available to serve, assist, and communicate. I will make no promises but I will give all my heart and put in 100% effort for the citizens of Precinct 1 because they deserve the best!

If elected for Grimes County Commissioner Precinct 1, my main goals are to maintain open communications and strengthen relationships within Precinct 1. I would like to lead the County in becoming a stronger TEAM-through interaction, communication, and working with the citizens of Precinct 1. In order to meet these goals, I would partner with my community leaders.

I would like to thank you for your support in the 2020 Elections.

May God Bless you!

Randall Griffin

Iola, Texas
