Farrell announces 2022 candidacy for Hopkinsville mayor

A local pastor is making it known he intends to run for mayor of Hopkinsville in the 2022 elections.

Republican Vince Farrell came to Hopkinsville about 10 years ago and serves as the pastor of Journey Church on Millbrooke Drive.

Farrell says he loves Hopkinsville, had considered running in the past and decided 2022 was the right time to do it.

He says he wants to bring people of different backgrounds together to find solutions to the city’s problems.

Farrell has never held office and believes being a political outsider is a strength.

Farrell has already established a website with more information on himself and his candidacy.
