Four of five district judge seats up for grabs in 2021 will have contested primaries in May.
Meanwhile, just one countywide race the Republican primary for the clerk of courts office will be contested this spring.
Barring candidate challenges, the May 18 primary ballots appear set. The deadline to file nominating petitions expired Tuesday. Elections Bureau Director JoAnn Sebastiani released the names of candidates for county offices after the deadline. A full list of candidates, including those seeking municipal offices and school district seats, could be released today, she said.
There will be contested primaries in four district judge races where no incumbents are seeking reelection.
