Candidate Carter Epilog

Won the Battle, but Lost the War

Although Candidate Carter narrowly won the battle for his home township of Fish Lake (524 to 500), he suffered another major defeat in the 11/04/2008 District 5 Chisago County Commissioner race. In stark contrast to an election year where “change” was a universal campaign statement and ousting incumbents was the political norm, incumbent Robinson delivered a resounding 2525 to 1420 defeat of Candidate Carter.

Once again the District 5 voters have spoken and once again history repeats itself. Incumbent Mike Robinson has been re-elected to serve a third, four-year term as District 5 Chisago County Commissioner.

What does the future hold for defeated candidate Bob Carter?
