  All - I stopped at the County Clerk's office and they printed off a list of positions up for election this year.  The first group is non-partisan, the second is partisan.  Filing dates for incumbents is February 17, non-incumbents March 2. IF you are interested in running or know someone who is, let us know.  We can discuss at the next monthly meeting next week, January 20. See you then.
