Dan Eldreth, who qualified as a Republican last week to seek the Dist. 4 seat on the Lamar County commission has withdrawn from the race. Eldreth told The Herald Gazette his candidacy conflicted with his work. In his announcement, Eldreth described himself as a retired Marine who farms land on Phillip Weldon Road. He also said he was a former professional and volunteer firefighter. His withdrawal leaves incumbent Republican Nancy Thrash as the only candidate in the race.
