I have been involved in Sussex County politics since 1972 and, every once in a while, you run into a candidate whose resume just stands out. In this year of politics, I have met that individual in Marty Rendon. Marty is running for the 14th Representative District, a seat which is available due to the retirement of the outstanding Pete Schwartzkopf. Sussex County and, yes, Delaware will miss Pete. Marty is capable of stepping up to the plate and giving the 14th District and Sussex County the voice that we need in Dover. Respect and achievement mark this gentleman, and Sussex needs his voice in the General Assembly.
