Check Out The Complete List (With Some Surprises) Of Washington County Candidates
Friday was the deadline for candidates to file for office all over Washington County.
Some interesting developments:
In St. George, incumbent Mayor Michele Randall will run against Jimmie Hughes, current city councilman. But this time the two will have to make it through a primary first as Aros Mackey and Brannon Raco also filed.

A different story in the county’s second largest city as no other candidates filed for mayor, so Kress Staheli will retain his seat unopposed.
Jarett Waite and Ben Shakespeare will compete in Santa Clara for the mayor’s spot that is being vacated by Rick Rosenburg, who announced last month that he would not run again.
Ivins Mayor Chris Hart also announced last month that he would not run again, so Kevin Smith will be the new mayor of Ivins -- he is the only person to file for that office.
In Hurricane, Washington County's third largest city, three candidates have filed to challenge incumbent Mayor Nanette Billings. They are Rick Crow, Gary Sanders and Clark Fawcett.
Here's a full list of the citizens who filed for office in Washington County (note -- more than three candidates for mayor means a primary will be necessary, while more than five candidates for city council means a primary is necessary as well).
