September 10, 2013

The Maricopa County Board of Supervisors is scheduled to appoint a new state senator during its Wednesday meeting. The board is replacing former Mesa Republican senator Rich Crandall. He resigned to become Wyoming’s top education official.

The board will choose from three candidates, state representative Kelly Townsend and former state representatives John Fillmore and Dave Farnsworth. The winner will serve out Crandall’s term which runs through the end of 2014.
