Three Republican contenders — Meg Hagaman, Sarah Rogers, and Jon Raiche — all seasoned legal minds, face off against unopposed Democrat Steve Endres. Each brings distinct visions: Hagaman prioritizes law enforcement partnerships and future readiness; Rogers champions victim care, homelessness solutions, and stricter bail; Raiche focuses on taxpayer savings and better domestic violence handling. Their differing stances on alternatives to incarceration — from diversion programs to mental health courts — could reshape justice in the county. The primary on September 8 will decide who gets to lead this pivotal office — and how justice is delivered for years to come.
