Looking at current election results several current Sullivan County commissioners will no longer be on the commission come September. Voters rejected four incumbents – Mark Vance in District 2, Todd Broughton and Terry Harkleroad in District 6, and Alicia Starnes in District 8 – in the Republican county primary. Only one candidate, Lori Love, ran in the Democratic primary. Primary winners will advance to the August general election. Meanwhile, incumbent Richard Venable has cleared a major hurdle in his bid for a third consecutive term as Sullivan County’s mayor.
