Wilkinson To Be Listed First On Primary Ballot

Gregory Wilkinson’s name will appear first on the March Republican primary ballot for Wabash County Coroner.

Both Wilkinson and Shaun Keepes were at the Wabash County Courthouse at 8am on the first day to file petitions, November 27th.

That necessitated a simultaneous filing lottery this afternoon in the Wabash County Clerk’s office. Under the watchful eye of elections representative Theresa Etzkorn, Connie Larry drew Wilkinson’s name from the basket.

The primary election will be held March 19th.

The winner of the Republican nomination will not face any opposition in next November’s general election as local democrats did not field a candidate for coroner.
