Elect Tony O. Martin Mayor of Beckley WV

The greatest danger for most of us is not that our aim is too high and we miss it.  But that it is too low and we reach it. - Michaelangelo

The task of the TONY|2011 Campaign goes beyond this election.  We will demonstrate that by working together as a community towards a common goal we can begin solving many problems. We will help lead Beckley into the next decade and elect Tony Martin as Beckley's next Mayor. 

Thank you in advance for your time and commitment to help build a better Beckley.

We want to hear from you.

Hi, I am always very interested in independent candidates and "grass roots" movements. Can you tell me more about Tony Martin? I moved to Beckley from another state and see so much potential for the area to become a thriving metro. Hope to hear from you soon.  Submitted By: T. B.

This is a nice website. It is very informative. I recently moved to the area and work in Beckley. I would love to see the downtown area renovated. I agree. It has a lot of potential.  Submitted By: J. A.

Looks and sounds good. Stepping on those old toes could get you elected. The survey is in agreement of everything I believe to be a problem.  Submitted By: G. S.
