Candidates running for office in Inyo and Mono counties may have to set off stink bombs at their events to gain any kind of attention in the face of a Presidential Primary Election, held June 7, that defies description.

In fact, as of the March 11 deadline for candidate filings, there are only two elections, Inyo County Board of Supervisors, District 2 and Mono County District 4 being contested. Candidates for Mammoth Town Council and Mono County’s District 3 have until March 16 to file since incumbents for both those races chose not to run for another term.

Here’s what the ballot will look like:

Inyo County:

            Superior Court Judge: Dean Stout

Office of Education, Area 2: David Hefner; Area 4: Mary Kemp

Board of Supervisors, District 2: Jeff Griffiths (incumbent) and Russ Aldridge

District 4: Mark Tillemans

District 5: Matt Kingsley

            Mono County:

            Superior Court Judge: Mark Majit
