CHATTANOOGA – Scottie Mayfield has endorsed Chuck Fleischmann’s re-election campaign, and been named Honorary Chairman of the campaign. Mr. Mayfield is the President Emeritus at Mayfield Dairy Farms, and was the runner-up in the 2012 Republican primary between Congressman Fleischmann, himself, and Weston Wamp.
“Since the election almost two years ago, Chuck has been in contact with me on a few issues that he felt I could have knowledgeable input. He listened and was appreciative of my opinion. I have appreciated his work ethic and think he has done a good job in light of the circumstances in Washington. I believe he is the best man to represent the Third District of Tennessee in Congress,” Mayfield said.
“I am asked a lot these days about what is next for me, and who I am supporting in this race. Today, I wanted to make clear that Chuck is who I am supporting in this race, and I am glad to accept the position of Honorary Chairman of his campaign,” Mayfield continued.
“I am so thankful to have Scottie’s support. Since our last campaign ended, he and I have sat down on a regular basis to talk about the issues that are important to East Tennessee. Not surprisingly, we have found a whole lot we agree on, and I have been eager to hear his thoughts and work with him on issues where we can make a difference together. I look forward to continuing this work – and eating a little more ice cream along the way,” Fleischmann said.
