Citing personal reasons, a candidate for Putnam County Council’s At-Large primary won’t accept office if elected.
Daryn Clifford confirmed to The Putnam County Post and Giant FM Monday morning he attempted to get his name removed from the ballot but with early voting underway, he was unsuccessful.
“I am attempting to but I can’t bc of the dead line. My option now is to resign from the position if I was to get elected. So that’s my plan if I get elected,” Clifford said.
Should he earn one of the three spots up for grabs in the primary, Clifford said he will resign.
“Yes, I am going to resign from county council if elected. Just personal reasons and wanting to devote my time elsewhere,” Clifford said.
