Blake Gatling Announces Running for the office of Conway County Assessor.

I'm excited to announce my intention to run for the office of Conway County Assessor in the upcoming Republican primary. My name is Blake Gatling and I am a lifelong resident of Conway County. Holding public office here has been a long time goal of mine and  I am very pleased to find myself at a place in life where I am able to pursue this goal.

I have spent my career helping small businesses in our community prosper while always remaining deeply involved with my father's and my own agriculture interests. My grandfather and great grandfather, who both had long careers in public service, helped instill in me the value of fairness. This has been the cornerstone of any success

I’ve been a part of and I believe that simple premise is key to the office of the Conway County Assessor. I wholeheartedly believe that if the system does not work for everyone, then the system does not work for anyone.

I would be remiss if I did not take this opportunity to thank my wife of over 25 years, Cindy, my two children, Maggie and Will, both my parents, and all my family and friends for the unlimited love and support that has gotten me to this point and that I will continue to lean on through this next chapter, win or lose. I'd like to ask all the citizens of Conway County for either their vote or the opportunity to earn their vote.

Please reach out with any questions, concerns, thoughts, or ideas. I look forward to seeing old friends, making new ones, and exchanging ideas with all along the campaign trail.
