  • UPDATED: Aurora?S Somerville Enters PC Race
    This page was exported from - The Auroran Export date: Wed Oct 6 9:56:35 2021 / +0000 GMT UPDATED: Aurora?s Somerville enters PC race By Brock Weir Aurora's Stephen Somerville has joined the race to take over from Frank Klees as the Progressive Conservative candidate for Newmarket-Aurora. Mr. Somerville threw his hat into the ring on Monday, nearly two weeks after Mr. Klees' surprise announcement he would not be seeking re-election. The Auroran columnist joins Newmarket Councillors Maddie Di Muccio and Jane Twinney as the third candidate in the PC race thus far. Perennial candidate Dorian Baxter, who has often run on the Federal ticket for the Progressive Canadian party, also plans to put his name into the mix later this week. Active with the conservatives on both the national and provincial levels for over 30 years, and with a 15-year career background in the energy sector, Mr. Somerville says he wants to continue where Mr. Klees will leave off when his term wraps up at the end of the next provincial election. ?I have had a really good chance to work with two of the finest representatives that we have in Lois Brown and Frank Klees, and I have had a really good chance to work with them and watch how they operate,? he says. ?I can tell you one thing: I think what this community really wants is a continuation of the first-class customer representation they have come to expect from a representative in our community.? With his career background in energy, it should come as no surprise this is a portfolio he has watched intently from the sidelines, both as a member of the party and a member of the public at large.
