ENDORSEMENTS
Having known Patti Bounds her entire life, we are pleased to endorse her for State Representative for House District 16, held by Representative Bill Dunn who is not seeking re-election. As long time residents of Fountain City, we believe she will represent District 16 with integrity, passion, transparency and the knowledge she has acquired over her years as an educator and Chair of the Knox County School Board. Patti is a life long learner. She has served the Knoxville community through the schools, civic organizations, and the church. |
It is an honor for me to endorse and support Patti Bounds for State Representative. As a career educator, I witnessed Patti’s leadership skills, knowledge base, and conscientious decision-making skills as she represented the community as a Knox County School Board member and later as the Chair of the Knox County Board of Education. I admire Patti because she was an excellent classroom teacher, is an energetic community leader, and is an intelligent woman who has earned the respect of her constituents. As a member of the legislature, I am convinced that Patti will familiarize herself with the issues, research and seek possible solutions and vote for bills that will impact her community in a positive and resourceful manner. Most of all, Patti is a person who has demonstrated integrity, honesty, and compassion as she took a stand on tough issues. I strongly endorse Patti Bounds in her bid to be one of our Tennessee State Representatives. She did a wonderful job as a teacher and excelled as a school board member rising to Chairperson based on her real life experience and her impeccable integrity. Patti understands the needs and the desires of the people of Tennessee and will represent us in a noble manner. |
Chuck and I support Patti Bounds in her endeavor to obtain the office of Tennessee House of Representatives . We have known Patti Bounds for over 45 years and over these years we have watched Patti prioritize family and community. She supports her family the same way that she has recently supported our local teachers. Patti and I were both educators for Knox County Schools. Chuck and I can state that Patti has a servants heart and is a woman of impeccable character. |
