Facing off for county commissioner in the General Election will be three candidates, Michael Hicks (D), chairman of the county Democrat party, Wayne Hardway (I), retired county school teacher and business administrator Anita West (R).
County Clerk Jean Simers said problems with a few voting machines were corrected election day, saying that the clerk's office expects to have all machines operable for the General Election.
