May 14. It’s official: Former Town Commissioner Dan Boone has officially announced his candidacy for mayor of Huntersville.

Boone also ran for mayor in 2023 but ultimately lost to Christy Clark, the current mayor of Huntersville. While the mayor and town board elections in Huntersville are non-partisan, both Boone, a Republican and Clark, a Democrat, are leaders in their respective parties.
Quotable
“I’m running for mayor because I care deeply about this town,” Boone said. “Huntersville deserves representation that will listen to residents and balance the need for growth with the wishes of the people. I’m ready to serve.”
Boone went on to say he will focus on “delivering real solutions for responsible growth, strong public safety, infrastructure investment, and protection of Huntersville’s character as it continues to grow.”

Oh great! I personally like him but really can’t stand to hear the fear mongering “if you see something, say something” coming from the Dias again. Blindly financially and politically supports the grossly incompetent Huntersville PD, progress and change are scary and must be managed very carefully, member of good ole boy club, cut costs and save money for a rainy day economy, throws a fit over a sailboat mosaic on a bus stop bench when insisting we are a farming community (psst, hasn’t been that way in decades). Old school, old style and just old is not what a young, progressive and rapidly growing community needs. There’s got to be a better option out there.
There is – her name is Christy Clark and she’s doing an outstanding job already.
