Running in his third race for Herndon Town Council (he missed a seat in 2022 by 119 votes), Steve Porter has been an active member of the Herndon community for over a decade and a frequent attendee at Council meetings for years.  He believes that being #Here4Herndon comes from fully engaging the community, listening to all viewpoints, carefully considering the potential outcomes, and then making the best decision in a non-partisan manner. Sometimes that means staying the course and sometimes that means innovating with new ideas and approaches. Through it all, Steve places a high value on transparency, fairness, and honesty.
