VISION

WORKING TOGETHER TO ACHIEVE COMMUNITY EXCELLENCE

I am excited to announce I have qualified as a candidate for the 2024 Camden County Board of Commissioners, District 3, election! While the role and responsibilities of the Commission are nonpartisan/apolitical in nature, the State of Georgia has declared this office to be partisan. Therefore, I have decided to run as a Republican candidate.

As many of you are aware, I began this journey planning to run as an Independent candidate. Having voted for Democrats and Republicans and having served as a federal executive within both party’s Administrations, I believed declaring as an Independent candidate would best demonstrate my commitment to serving all citizens of Camden County. While my commitment to serving all constituents remains, I have discovered, during my brief stint in local politics, that declaring nonpartisanship in a partisan election will not yield the best result for the citizens of District 3, and Camden County. That result is to elect, me, Marcus L. Hill as your new Commissioner! I support Republican conservative values, and first and foremost, I pledge my commitment to serve and represent the citizens of Camden County.es, and first and foremost, I pledge my commitment to serve and represent the citizens of Camden County.

WHAT PEOPLE
ARE SAYING

JEFF BARKER

Longtime Camden Resident and Community Leader

I believe Marcus is the most qualified candidate for District 3 Camden County Commissioner for several compelling reasons. Growing up in Camden County, Marcus has a good understanding and appreciation for the quality of life that we all enjoy. As a retired United States Air Force officer, he understands the importance of Kings Bay Naval Base, not only to our nation but also as a major employer in Camden County. Marcus understands the importance of law enforcement and as a retired senior executive with the Federal Law Enforcement Training Centers has developed the skills necessary to tackle and solve complex situations and issues. I will be voting for Republican Marcus Hill on Tuesday, May 21st.
