Applegate defeats Bigler in Democratic primary for state attorney
Applegate wins the Democratic nomination over incumbent Bigler in a county race marked by attacks from both sides. Bigler touted an 85 percent conviction rate since 2000 and planned to finish his term, while Applegate pledged to reform the office, reduce court costs, and eliminate a grant funded investigator position amid a county debt of 1.1 million dollars. Residents, not Bigler, were described as angry and seeking change. No Republican challenger is on the general election ballot.
