“I stood up with Lt. Mike Hernandez when he announced his intentions to run for San Angelo’s next police chief,” Smith stated. “I did this because I have watched this former Marine grow within the police service and within our community. I did this because I know he is well qualified to serve in this position. But I came out front because of my concern for the citizens of San Angelo and the negative things that are happening all across our Country. San Angelo is a special place and I want it to stay that way… Please give Mike Hernandez your consideration and your vote as you head to the polls in this run-off election.”
