SheriffComposite
Three Republican candidates, including the incumbent, are running a hot and heavy campaign for the Bulloch County sheriff’s seat. Incumbent Lynn Anderson faces challengers Tommy Sisson and Keith Howard in the Tuesday primary election.Since the Bulloch County sheriff’s race is partisan, and all candidates are Republican, those voting a straight Democratic or nonpartisan ticket won’t be able to vote in the race.Both Howard and Sisson are former Georgia State Patrol troopers, and both claim change is needed in the office. Anderson said his record shows an impressive ratio of solved crimes, improvements and a safe county.Howard said he is running for the position because there are several areas in which he would like to see change.In speaking with attorneys and family members of those in the Bulloch County Jail, he said concerns about the jai operations have arisen.
