Election Day - What to Watch

Posted by Jeff Pruitt - 11/4/08 @ 3:20 am - Filed Under 2008 Local Elections, Featured

I’ll ignore the obvious here which are clearly the Presidential race as well as the 3rd District congressional race. But there are a few other interesting things to watch:

  1. Can Gary Snyder break the Republican stranglehold on Huntington politics and win a seat on the county council?
  2. How many seats will Democrats gain in the state legislature? I posted my thoughts on the top tier races back in mid July.
  3. How will the township assessor referendum turn out? Are voters ready to do away with township government?
  4. Will Democrats Susan Hoot and/or Kevin Knuth win a seat on the Allen County council?
  5. How will the FWCS races play out? Will the Code Blue Schools candidates carry the day or will the status quo win out?

Just a few local items to watch while you’re glued to the TV waiting for the big-ticket races to report…
