Additionally, a runoff election has been set for the hotly contested race for Montgomery County Sheriff between incumbent Rand Henderson and challenger Wesley Doolittle. In the Primary Election, spoiler Kenton Ford took 3.9 percent of the vote, which was enough to keep Henderson at 49.9 percent of the vote against Doolittle’s 46 percent, a matter of approximately four dozen ballots.
