(This post-election message was updated. June 2024)
Dear friends and supporters,
I sincerely thank my many supporters who voted for me on Tuesday, November 7, 2023. I didn’t quite make it, but it was a good run, and as a result, I have made many new friends. By listening to you, I gained an even better understanding of the challenges facing the citizens of Pooler and our region.
Initially, I chose to seek the office of Pooler City Councilperson because I recognized that Pooler needed a significant major change in leadership. Due to decades of bad decisions, Pooler faced and continues to face unprecedented challenges.
After the first months with a new Mayor and Council, it’s clear that Pooler’s new leadership will benefit significantly from your continued observation and advice. Wisdom and transparency will rule the day if they are willing to listen.
Working together will result in great things. So, my friends, remain diligent. You are needed now more than ever.
Thank you for your trust in me. I trust in you.
Dave Legasse

Dave Legasse understands that the decisions made by Pooler’s leadership will soon determine irreversible outcomes! There are no second chances!
- All decisions must consider the citizens of Pooler first, our sense of community, our safety, and our quality of life, now and into the future.
- New services, new schools, and new housing require an expanded, well-planned infrastructure.
- Yet, parts of our community continue to have inadequate sewer and water lines. These systems must be brought up to date.
- Existing and future traffic patterns must be better planned to relieve congestion, and
- The decisions made must result in a Pooler with more green space for our families to enjoy.
Such growth is only good if it results in a higher quality of life for all citizens … without raising new taxes. Growth must bring improvements for all. Otherwise, what’s the point?
