We support our Republican candidates:
John Skiptunas is currently the Lima Deputy Mayor. During his time as Village Trustee and Deputy Mayor, John has demonstrated an aptitude for leadership and governing. He is willing to listen to people and work toward bettering the entire community.
John is also Past President of the Lima Rotary. Through Rotary, he had shown his love and commitment to Lima and the people who live here.
John understands the issues and concerns of the Village of Lima and will make a fine Mayor.
I am proud to endorse him and encourage all voters of the Village of Lima to elect John Skiptunas on March 16th.

I’ve known Carolyn Fleming for about 35 years. Carolyn is very dedicated to everything she commits to. Carolyn is honest, caring and devoted to our community. I believe she would definitely be an asset to the village board.

Serving with Brian Smith on the Crossroads Council allowed me to see his character and effectiveness as a leader. Brian took responsibility for pioneering the BBQ Rib Cook-Off event — it was challenging to work out all the details and he handled them with excellence.
I know that Brian has a heart to serve our Lima community and will do a great service for every resident of Lima. He is an effective communicator and has the education and common sense that will be valuable on our Village board.

Over the past five years I’ve had the opportunity to see John Skiptunas support and promote Lima in many different ways. From his activities rebuilding Lima Rotary, Crossroads Fest, Senior Thanksgiving Dinner, and the Lima Christmas Tree Lighting Event, John has done an amazing job planning, organizing, and enjoying himself during all these events.
John and I worked closely on many projects including the Mark Tubbs Memorial Park Master Plan where he did a great job looking forward beyond today and planning for the long-term success of the park. There is no one out there that cares more about Lima than John and I’d ask everyone to support him in his candidacy for Mayor!
John Correll, former mayor, Village of Lima
I have known Carolyn Fleming for over 25 years. We attend the same small church and have served on multiple committees together. Carolyn is well respected within our church family. She is very intelligent and gravitates to a leadership role on any committee she is on.
I think that Carolyn would be an excellent addition to our local government. She is very loyal to our village and would always be looking for options to improve it in any way.
