There are still a couple of hours left to make your voice heard. If you haven’t made it to the polls yet, now is the time. Proud to support my friend, Rep. Matt Simpson, as he continues fighting for our families and our community.

Proud to have the endorsement of Daphne City Councilman Benjamin Hughes

"I am proud to offer my full support and endorsement of Matt Simpson.

Matt has represented the City of Daphne and Baldwin County with consistency, integrity, and a clear commitment to the people he serves. I have had the opportunity to know Matt personally, and I have seen firsthand the way he approaches leadership with purpose and a strong sense of responsibility.

Matt is a strong advocate for public safety and has consistently supported the men and women who serve and protect our communities. He has also been a steady voice when it comes to protecting families and children, standing firm on the issues that matter most to the people of our area. Just as important, he has been a reliable and effective voice for Daphne in Montgomery.

Matt shows up, he listens, and he works hard to represent this community the right way. That kind of leadership matters, and it is why I am confident in his continued service.

I encourage you to join me in supporting Representative Matt Simpson."

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE -- Milton Jones Road Extension Project Requires Summertime Road Closure

The Milton Jones Road extension project in Daphne will require a closure of the intersection at County Road 13 from May 4 until the end of August. The project is a partnership between the City of Daphne and the Baldwin County, AL Commission and will connect Pollard Road to State Highway 181 adding a much-needed additional east/west corridor.
