One election this year won’t be touched by the expected tidal wave of Democratic voters turning out to support Barack Obama: the contest for Fifteenth District judge. The successor to retiring judge Ann Mattson will be elected in a nonpartisan vote.
August’s primary cut the field from four people to two: Chris Easthope, who’s represented the Fifth Ward on city council since 2000, and Washtenaw County first assistant prosecutor Eric Gutenberg, who’s been with the prosecutor’s office since 1989.
Government, business, environment, the U-M, and more.
