Congratulations to the Republican Winners!
I’m in a hurry to get to the Elections Office, but I wanted to be the first to congratulate those who have “won” because they have no opposition:
Steve Cronic - Sheriff (60 years since the last uncontested race? Is that right?)
Larry Baldwin - Solicitor General
Tom Oliver - Commissioner Chairman (so much for the curse)
Craig Herrington - School Board Post 3
Nath Morris - School Board Post 4
Margaret Gregory - Magistrate Judge
Marion Merck - Coroner (had a close call–another potential candidate came by but decided not to qualify)
Chris Patton - Surveyor
All Republicans are winners, but some still have races to go:
Billy Powell v. Chris Masters - Commission Post 2
Keith Echols v. JC Smith - Tax Commissioner
Patti Cornett v. Dan Sammons - Probate Judge
Bob Vass v. Jennifer Gibbs v. Charles Baker - Clerk of Court
