Adair General Election 2006: deadline to file passed at 4 p.m.

Senior Councillor Larry Marshall is not seeking re-election. Chris Watts, Greg Willis have no opposition; John Arnold becomes ninth City Council candidate. Place for write-in will be on ballot along with two SCD Supervisor candidates, Danny Wilkinson and Jason Ed Grider; Arnold Mayse does not seek re-election.
Two incumbent school board members, Vice Chairman Greg Willis and Member Chris Watts will have no opposition. No one filed against either board member when the filing deadline came at 4:00pm CT, Tuesday, August 8, 2006.

But there was a big disappointment for many when perhaps the most respected City Council member ever, Larry Marshall, did not file for another term.



One new candidate for the City Council, John Arnold, filed today to become the ninth person seeking the six council seats.

Arnold joins a field which includes incumbents Craig Dean, Charles Grimsley, Joe Moore, June Parson and Edwin Taylor, plus Shannon Rowe, Greg Thomas, and Linda Waggener.

Only two Adair County Soil Conservation District Supervisors filed. They are Danny Wilkinson and Jason Ed Grider. Supervisor Arnold Mayse chose not to file. Had a third filed, they would have been declared the victors and would not have appeared on the fall ballot. But because there are only two, they will be on the fall ballot along with a place for a write-in for the third spot, Adair County Court Clerk Ann Melton said.

The race for Mayor, City of Columbia, remains a two man contest, with Mayor Patrick R. Bell and Roger Rucker the only two to file.
