Election 2024
The General Primary Election is May 21, with advanced voting starting April 29.
As the General Primary Election approaches, the White County News is providing candidate profiles for each contested race. As no Democrats qualified to run in local contests — White County Sheriff, White County Board of Commissioners Chair, White County Board of Commissioners District 1 and White County Board of Commissioners District 4 — the Republican primary will effectively determine who will take each seat.
We are providing the profiles here, for free, as we publish them. Click on the candidate's name to read the profile.
Sheriff
County Commission Chair
County Commission District 1
County Commission District 4
Coming soon: Profile interview videos
There is also a contested seat for the State House of Representatives. Incumbent Stan Gunter will face Union County farmer Dick Mills as a challenger in the Republican primary for District 8. Democrat Charlotte Sleczkowski of Towns County will face the Republican Primary winner in November.
- Stan Gunter (incumbent)
