This is worth the read — my good friend Philbrick at mustardstreet.blogspot.com has a great post on the Ciaran Hanna/Nora Bredes race. It is his typical, thoughtful insight into local races.
He also has a great post on politcal heavyweight Carmen Gamina, the Webster County Legislator who is 0 for 5 in public support for candidates he endorsed. Hopefully, redistricting will take care of Carmen in the 2011 legislative elections.
