The pre-election saga continues as we look at the local races on next week’s ballot.

NAC’s
pants-down editorial board still hasn’t been able to reach consensus on how many hallucinogenic drugs it would take to envision Sarah Palin in the Oval Office, so we’re randomly tossing out these local contests for discussion.

Open thread: Elections for Floyd County Superior Court 2 & 3.

First up today are the remaining county offices, in no particular order: Treasurer, Recorder, Coroner and Surveyor. As before, the Tribune’s hard work is more than sufficient to set the table. The newspaper’s questions and answers are extensive, and there’s much to be digested. To avoid the senior editor’s initial confusion, know that the current Treasurer’s running for Recorder, and the current Recorder is running for Treasurer.

That was easy, wasn’t it? All I know for sure at this juncture is that I’ll be voting for John Click for Coroner, because it’s never a good idea to annoy the person who cares for your teeth, although I’m not sure how far the analogy should be extended … nah, never mind.
