Nelson Po of Sumpter Township announced Monday that he has filed with Wayne County to run for the position of Sumpter Township supervisor on the Democratic ticket in the Aug. 6 primary election.
Rather than gathering names on petitions, he said he paid the optional $100 filing fee.
Po said as supervisor he plans to fulfill his dream project of building a senior citizen complex in Sumpter.
The deadline is 4 p.m., Tuesday, April 23, to file to be on the ballot for the Aug. 6 primary election for partisan and non-partisan candidates, including township officials, district court judge, and Wayne County Community College trustee.
