A Wilmington attorney is throwing his hat into the 2010 State Treasurer’s race.
Democrat Chip Flowers is founder of the Flowers Counsel group, which specializes in procurement law and mergers and acquisitions.
Flowers says he wants the Treasurer’s Office to take a more active role in turning around the Delaware economy.
He wants the Treasurer’s Office to invest more state money into local businesses to help grow the local economy.
He also wants to set up an economic development office within the Treasurer’s Office.
Flowers wants to make the Treasurer’s Office which would evaluate revenue issues such as the impact of expanding gambling in Delaware.
