Election 2009, Candidates

What really amazes me is the fact judges seem to so rarely run opposed. What's the deal with that? A friend of mine once made the point that the local county judge is the front line definer of law, and protector of civil rights. Does that make it that much of an undesirable job, or are we not expressing discontent with them? Or are they actually doing a good job? Hard to tell...you might see some posts on this in the future...

Anyhow, for the sake of saving time, I only listed elections where there's actually some choice. You can get the full list here, courtesy of the Franklin County Board of Elections. Again, this is NOT a complete list!
