Here In The 5th District
Loudon County is divided into seven districts with
ten commissioners. The 1st, 2nd and 5th districts have two commissioners
each the rest of the districts have only one commissioner each. The
number of commissioners is based on the population of each district.
Here in the 5th District, where I live and where I'm running for county commission, we have two commissioners. They're designated as seat "A" and seat "B". The current seat "A" incumbent is Harold Duff. Mr. Duff is being challenged by David Ball and Pat Hunter. The current seat "B" incumbent is me, Van Shaver. I am being challenged by Lenoir City councilman, Eddie Simpson. The 5th district is the largest district in the county with a population of 11,242 with 8,250 registered voters. When 5th district voters go to the polls you will be able to vote for one candidate in each seat. Of course my preference would be that they vote for "Van Shaver" in seat "B" but none the less, you do get to vote for one candidate for each seat, "A" and "B". The 5th district is also divided into two precincts, North and Eaton. But no matter which precinct you live in, you can still vote for one candidate in each seat. All the residents of the 5th district, West of Hwy. 321 are in the Eaton precinct and will vote at Eaton Elementary School on election day. All residents East of Hwy. 321 are in the North Precinct and will vote at North Middle School on election day. If you vote early it really makes no difference which precinct you are in. Voting early sure makes it easy and convenient. Below are links to the 5th district precinct maps. |
