We don't get a whole lot of contested races for County Commissioner around here. The districts are drawn to elect someone from one party or the other, and as we know the Commissioners themselves have plenty of cash on hand to deal with any challenges that may arise. I have a certain amount of admiration for the people who are willing to take on a task like this. It helps when the candidates in question are just downright nice people who are doing this because they believe in the process. That's a good description of Dexter Handy, who's running against Commissioner Steve Radack in Precinct 3. My interview with Handy is here, as always in MP3 format.
