Considers Write in Campaign
As expected, incumbent Bob Gustafson will be on the November ballot seeking another term as District Three County Commissioner.
Gustafson will be challenged by big city politician George McMahon. In 2004, Gustafson was earned second seed at the Primary yet delivered a convincing win over Curt Flug in the General Election.
A write in candidacy is always a long shot, especially when facing a well funded candidate like McMahon.
The bigger question is this, "Is McMahon any better than Gustafson? Or is he just another good old boy politican seeking political office for his own benefit and the benefit of his cronies?"
McMahon and Company delivered an impressive primary win, garnering some 600 votes, but can he beat Gustafson in the fall when 6,000 votes could be cast in the Presidential Election?
A write in campaign could send the lesser of two evils into power or return Gustafson for another four years of taxing and spending.
