There is sometimes a shortage of candidates for the urban districts on the county road board, presumably because the board's primary responsibility is for county-maintained roads outside Shelbyville. The county commission will appoint candidates to serve if none are elected.
BELL BUCKLE ALDERMEN
Robert Frank Reagor (I)
Annie Rooney

...just a word if you had a complaint about the school board get out and vote!!!
If you do not vote you should not complain. The ball is now in your court voters!!!!!!
If your representivtive does not have someone running against them you can still show them how you feel by not giving them your courtesy vote.
