Updated 2/15/2021 11:35 AM
Two Republican candidates are duking it out for a shot to appear on the April 6 ballot for Algonquin Township highway commissioner.
The winning candidate among Robert Bob Bragg and Danijela Sandberg will face off against independent candidate Derek Lee in the spring, McHenry County Clerk Joe Tirio said.
The three-way race for supervisor and this one for highway commissioner are the only competitive races on the primary ballot. The township s assessor and clerk jobs also are up this cycle, and so are four trustee seats.
Richard S. Alexander is running for reelection as the township s assessor, and Maureen Huff is hoping to become the next clerk, as the township s current clerk, Karen Lukasik, decided not to run again.
