A Hubbard Trustee has announced his candidacy for a countywide position.

Rick Hernandez will run for Trumbull County Commissioner in the March 2024 primary election.

Hernandez plans to file for the seat Commissioner Niki Frenchko currently holds.

Campaign flyers for Hernandez say he "will work with the other commissioners for the best interest of the tax payers." He hopes to "bring an end to the animosity" and "re-establish unity" in the Commissioner's Office.

Hernandez also ran for county commissioner in 2022, but lost in the primary to now Commissioner Denny Malloy.
