Curtis Watkins says,
“I have spent most of my adult life in service to the people of Logan County, both through my work at Houchens Market and through my service as the current magistrate of District 3. Using my experience in farming and working in public service, I understand the needs of both the farmer and the businessman.”
“I am also keenly aware of the need to promote economic growth and development in Logan County to keep us prosperous. During my terms in office as magistrate, I have worked hard to make myself available to the people in my district and to try to meet their needs.
“I have a love for people and for this county and will continue to work to represent them to the best of my ability. I ask the citizens of District 3 to allow me to continue to serve them as their magistrate on Logan Fiscal Court.”
