Independent voters

Be interesting to see how many votes Larry Alley gets running as an independent in the 78th District against Democrat Ed Trimmer. Sounds like he aligns with Republicans and offers contrast to Trimmer.

But he'd have to campaign hard and do lots of advertising and promotion to challenge Trimmer, who I think his pretty popular and made a reputation as a good legislator despite being left of center in a conservative area. Alley sounds a bit gun shy and he is not too well known in the Winfield area, where all the votes are. But there is still time to raise his profile, and with so many people calling themselves independent these days, and with no GOP candidate on the ballot, that is enough for Trimmer to take him seriously.
