Prattville City Councilman to Run for Senate 30 Seat
Republican and Prattville Councilman Ray Boles announced Friday that he will be a candidate for Senate District 30 during the 2010 election cycle. Senate District 30 includes all of Butler, Pike and Crenshaw counties and parts of Autauga, Elmore and Lowndes Counties and is currently represented by Sen. Wendell Mitchell, D-Luverne.
“I am honored to announce that I am a Republican candidate for State Senate District 30,” Boles said in a statement. “I am very humbled by the encouragement and support I have received, and I look forward to campaigning throughout Senate District 30 in the coming months.
Boles, a lifelong resident of Prattville and a business owner, said that Alabama's greatest resource in this part of the state is the people and he believes their conservative principles and values will move Alabama forward.
"I believe in these same conservative principles and values, and that is why I am running as a Republican. The Alabama Senate has for too long been beholden to the Democratic special interests in Montgomery," he said. "I believe that the Republican Party’s principles of smaller government and dedication to growing small businesses will improve our district and our state. I intend to use my business and civic experience for the citizens of our district so that we can create more jobs and improve our schools. I will fight for ethics reform in state government, and I pledge to represent our district with the honesty and integrity that our citizens deserve.
"The Republican Party has seen tremendous growth in Alabama in recent years. I look forward to being a part of its continued success," he said.

It appears that Ray Boles at least actually resides in Senate District 30, as required by Section 47 of the Alabama Constitution, which is something I don’t think Senator Mitchell can honestly say.
