Jordan City has elected a new mayor, and this decision was made rather quickly. Dante Marsco of Jordan City won the election before it even started, running what delegates saw as a bold, confident campaign from the jump.

Marsco had a direct message of confidence and courage that helped him get the position early and win his city’s attention.

Throughout the campaign, Marsco stayed focused and composed. He said he did not let competition distract attention to his final accomplishment of becoming mayor. His bold tone and attitude drew attention and support from the city, and many saw it as strong leadership.

“I came into [American Legion Buckeye Boys State (ALBBS)] aiming to just be myself, and the people of Jordan loved it. This ultimately ended up with me landing the position of Mayor,” Marsco stated.
