Taking a look at some of the candidates whose names are on the ballot Tuesday for office Adair, Adams and Montgomery Counties….

In Adair County, there are no contested races. In fact in Bridgewater, no one is running for Mayor or the three open city council seats. All will be decided by write-in vote.

The situation is a little different in Adams County, where two people are vying for the lone At-Large seat on the city council in Corning. They include incumbent Bert Peckham and challenger Ranae Nicholson. In Prescott, no one has filed papers to run for Mayor or the two city council seats. Only incumbent April Damewood is on the ballot for a seat on the council to fill a vacancy. The rest will be write-in’s.

In Montgomery County, the races we’ll be watching include those in Stanton and Grant. Four people are in the running for two seats on the city council in Stanton, including Incumbents James Cavner and Ray Guffey, and their challengers Eric L. Paulsen and Tysen Sederburg. Mayor Kirk Requist is unopposed. In Grant, incumbent Mayor Andrea J. Holldorf faces a challenge from Laurena Mifflin and Michael A. Ford. There are also 5 seats open on the city council, and six people in the running. They include incumbents Lyn Sliger, Jeff Brown, Nancy L. Taylor, and Michael B. Amos, along with Robert Scott Molnar and Steve Williams.
