No races have formed for all seven county offices up for election this year with less than a week to go before the filing deadline. Incumbents for the seven county offices on the ballot are the only candidates to file so far. They are Northern District Commissioner Dan Hampson, Southern District Commissioner Hubie Kluesner, Sheriff Kevin Harrison, Assessor Wendy Nordwald, Public Administrator Jeff Hoelscher, Coroner Roger Mauzy and Surveyor Bob Lewis. All are Republicans. The filing period for county and state offices ends Tuesday, March 27. Elsewhere, state Rep. Bart Korman, a Republican from High Hill, is the only candidate to file for the 42nd District House seat. The new district, slightly altered from the current 99th District that Korman currently represents, encompasses all of Montgomery County, a large portion of Warren County and extends into southwestern St. Charles County. In the new 63rd District, which covers Wright City, nearly all of Innsbrook and northwestern St. Charles County, only two candidates have filed. They are Democrat Bill Stinson, of Wright City, and Republican Bryan Spencer, of Wentzville. Warren County Associate Judge Wes Dalton remains the lone candidate to file for 12th Judicial Circuit judge. The circuit covers Warren, Montgomery and Audrain counties. The primary election will be held Tuesday, Aug. 7, with the general election set for Tuesday, Nov. 6.
