Zeller Wins Full Term as Linn County Sheriff Over Sorensen
Don Zeller, a Democrat, defeated Republican Jim Sorensen 52 242 to 26 904 to secure a first full four year term as Linn County Sheriff. Zeller vows continued fines collection, jail reform, and crime prevention with improved front counter service. Sorensen, a jailer, praised some efforts but aimed to boost patrols and public safety if elected. The rematch followed a December 1994 special election.
