How many candidates have run for political office in your neck of the woods?
Just curious, here in ABQ for our Mayoral election we have 8 running. Three Republicans, three Democrats and two Independents. Most we have had this century.

Not many. We only get 1 person on a ballot which is usually just a Republican. Many of the people in my neck are fed up with both parties, but nobody do not want to step up to be part of the solution to help improve this country because of the bitter attacks between the two parties. We do get some Independents, but both parties makes it hard for any Independents to get on the ballot in this state.

Last fall we had six run for two open town council seats, and five run in the Republican primary for our county council seat. Dims don't run for office here.
