Sixteen is a recurring number in the race for Center District Porter County Commissioner. Democratic candidate Julie Giorgi has served for 16 years on the Union Township School Board of Trustees, while Republican candidate Barb Regnitz was a financial adviser and certified financial planner for 16 years in Schaumburg, Illinois.
Candidates on the ballot had a chance to sway Duneland Chamber of Commerce members Tuesday at the Porter County Expo Center.
Barb Regnitz is a retired financial adviser. Prior that that, she was a software engineer and project manager, most of that time for United Airlines.
With incumbent Porter County Commissioner Jeff Good letting the clock run out on his second term in office, the Board of Commissioners will see a new face next year.
The only contested races so far are Republican, for county commissioner in District 2 (Center), County Council District 1 and county assessor.
