Cowboy Hat Removed from Ring

That was short-lived. Ron Stricker, auctioneer and man of giant cowboy hat fame, will not run for Johnson County Sheriff.

He announced his candidacy for television cameras. Then, like that, he was gone from the race. He removed his cowboy hat from the ring due to family obligations. 

To my knowledge, that leaves one candidate for JoCo Sheriff, Calvin Hayden. Current sheriff, Frank Denning, will not seek re-election. Rumor has it, there will be more candidates, but no one has shared any names with me.
