Roach vows to restore fiscal discipline, citizen-focused leadership in Smith River 

Malcolm Roach's Bid for Smith River District Seat

Malcolm Roach, 71, is seeking the Smith River District seat on the Patrick County Board of Supervisors, driven by a desire for commonsense governing, restoring the county to its residents, and conservative fiscal responsibility.

Roach, who faces Rick Swink in the November 4 election, believes the county's finances need improvement. If elected, he plans to review the budget, question expenses, and reduce the cost of government.

“It’s not right that when people here get ready to retire, they have to sell their homes and land they’ve worked for all their lives because they can’t afford to pay the taxes,”

said Roach, who has been active in county affairs since moving to Patrick County from Pennsylvania.
