In announcing her candidacy, Miles noted her desire to create more value for the citizens of Daviess County. “My campaign slogan is “Going the Extra Miles…”, because that is my intent. When I commit to doing something, I’ll go above and beyond to see it through.”, said Miles. “This is our community, and these are our tax dollars. I want to see more people involved. I want input from our citizens so that we can ensure that we are doing all we can do to make Daviess County an excellent place to live. My vision is for our kids to have a thriving community that they want to come back to after college.”
