Leader Staff
Tuesday was the first day to circulate nomination papers for the November election, and all three Shawano County incumbents hoping to be on the ballot this fall have taken out papers for another four-year term.
Sheriff Randy Wright, Clerk of Courts Sue Krueger and Coroner Mike Jesse are all up for re-election.
They each have until 5 p.m. on June 2 to return 200 signatures to the county clerk’s office, as will any potential challengers. As of Tuesday afternoon, no one else has yet taken out papers, County Clerk Rosemary Rueckert said.
Rueckert said a new rule added this year will require those who sign the nominating papers to also print their name. Signatures that are not legible will not be counted.
The general election will be held Nov. 4. If a primary is necessary in any of the races, it will be held Aug. 12.
