The battle lines have been drawn for the upcoming DeKalb countywide elections, leaving some incumbents in peril while at least a couple will get a free pass back into office. “I think there’ll be a lot of interest in this year’s ballot,” said Director of Elections Dennis Stanley, pointing to four countywide positions that are being contested. County Mayor will take shape sooner than later as three of the four candidates seeking the county’s top office are asking for the Democratic nomination.
