Four years of Democratic control of the Vanderburgh County
Commissioners came to a screeching halt Tuesday night, as victories
by Republicans Cheryl Musgrave and Bill Nix gave the GOP all three
seats on the panel.
Musgrave, county assessor for the last 10 years, handed Democratic
incumbent David Mosby, a former city councilman, his first defeat in
a local election. In the other race, Nix out-polled Democratic County
Councilman Royce Sutton and claimed the seat being vacated by
Democrat Catherine Fanello.
