County Elections seen as a Victory for the Public Good

Circuit Court Clerk:  Dewayna Martin is the clear winner over Tracy Long Austin--Martin 3,796--Austin 2,304...The Circuit Court Clerk position is one of the most important posts in the county. 

Austin had the backing of the current/retiring circuit court clerk Marty Cook, and the local Murphy Clan...nevertheless, her defeat is seen as a victory for the rule of law and the administration of justice.

Monroe County Road Superintendent--Incumbent Steve Teague wins over Richard Best's 2nd try to get in the county road superintendent position...RB was seen sitting down in election posters wearing what looked like a light green pajama shirt..."What the heck were you thinkin' Richard?"

Monroe County Mayor--Mitch Ingram defeated Tim Yates for the second time--Mitch Ingram 4,116--Tim Yates 1,993
