Michael Brummer for Mayor of Effingham, IL: Celebrating Our Past, Creating Our Future
Vote on April 6th, 2027
Michael's Background
Founded In Effingham
I’m a husband, father of three, friend, entrepreneur, and community builder who believes deeply in Effingham and its future. My wife, Ann, and I are raising our three girls here, and I’ve spent much of my career building businesses, creating community events, and investing in places that bring people together. I’m running for mayor to help build an Effingham that my girls and the next generation will be proud to call home.
The Platform
Building a Stronger Effingham Together
Effingham already has strong businesses, strong institutions, and people who care deeply about their community. I believe the next chapter should build on those strengths while planning deliberately for the city Effingham can become.
Vision for Effingham
EFFINGHAM — MADE FOR FAMILIES
"I want Effingham to be one of the best small towns in America to build a life and raise a family.
A place where our kids can see a future for themselves, and those who leave have a reason to move home. A place where families can find a home they can afford, businesses have the people and resources they need to grow, and entrepreneurs know their ideas are welcome.
A place with great parks and trails, a vibrant downtown, memorable community events, strong neighborhoods, and places where families, friends, and neighbors naturally come together.
We already have so much of what makes a great community: strong families, great schools and churches, hardworking businesses, generous people, and an incredible location. We don't need to become another community. We need to build the best version of Effingham.
Previous generations made bold decisions that shaped the community we inherited. Now it's our turn."
Thank You Effingham
"Thank you for standing up and Supporting our community. Together, we can shape the future."
