I was just browsing their website and I realized I don't know what positions are up in the next election. Anyone in the know care to share?

Dave I'd be happy to let ou know ... here they are from the top down

U.S. Senate (Evan Bayh's seat)
U.S. House (Donnely's seat)
State Reps (Dermody & Pelath for our area)
County Sheriff
County Prosecutor
County Assessor
County Commission District 1 (Bohacek seat)
4 County Council District Seats (Incumbents Garner, Yagelski, Mrosinski & Cunnigham)
Township trustees and boards (provided the state legislature does not do away with them)
State Auditor
State Treasurer
State Secretary of State
(these last three will not be on a primary ballot as they are chosen by state delegates as to whom will appear on the November ballot)
Both Parties will be electing state delegates ... I believe 28 each for the state convention in June
There will also be some members of the shool board up for re-election this year as well.

I do believe that pretty much covers it ... if I skipped anything I do apologize.
