Charleston City Councilmember Peter Shahid Endorses William Cogswell for Mayor of Charleston
Today, Charleston City Councilmember Peter Shahid (above left) announced he endorses William Cogswell (above right) for the next mayor of Charleston.
“On November 7th, 70% of Charleston voted to ’Rethink Charleston.’ Getting to know William throughout this race has shown me that he is the leader our city needs. The Holy City has not progressed to the level we need or expect from the mayor. John Tecklenburg has failed us. I am excited to support William Cogswell and his winning campaign,” said Shahid.
Cogswell said, “I am honored to have Peter’s support in this critical race. His eight years of service on the council for the people of Charleston have given him a deep understanding of the importance of good leadership. We can all agree that John Tecklenburg’s leadership has failed the people, and I am confident that with Peter’s support, we will take back Charleston on November 21st and prioritize the needs of our residents.”
