Judge Glasson to retain seat in Stateline

Tahoe Township Justice of the Peace Richard Glasson will be serving a fourth six-year term.

First elected in 2000, Glasson has not faced an opponent in the three elections since then.

Jan. 12 was the final day to file for the seat.

The other Douglas County judgeship is being contested because Justice of the Peace Tom Perkins is not seeking re-election. 

Attorneys Cassandra Jones and Erik Levin filed for the East Fork Township position. This judgeship covers Douglas County outside Lake Tahoe. With only two candidates, voters will make their decision in November.
