I know what it\u2019s like to juggle family and work while worrying about making ends meet. I\u2019m running for State Representative to ensure that our district has a strong, conservative voice in the legislature and that we work to create solutions to improve the lives of all Cullman County residents,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>In his campaign, Hollingsworth has pledged a common-sense, conservative approach to governance. He said he values strong, ethical, and informed leadership and plans to bring those principles to Montgomery.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI commit to serve the people of Cullman County with integrity and be a strong conservative voice in Montgomery,\u201d Hollingsworth said. \u201cI care deeply for this community and will always put the needs of my constituents first.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A Cullman native, Hollingsworth graduated from Cullman High School, attended Wallace State Community College, and earned a bachelor\u2019s degree from Athens State University. He owns D1 Motor Cars, a business that specializes in unique, hard-to-find vehicles. Prior to launching his company, he managed College Tire in Hanceville.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-6\" style=\"margin: 8px auto; text-align: center; display: block; clear: both;\">\n<div class=\"zox-post-ad-wrap\"><span class=\"zox-ad-label\">Advertisement.
