Steve Maynor Wins Chatham County Sheriff Election with 76.4% of Vote
Steve Maynor, appointed as Chatham County Sheriff in August by outgoing Sheriff Mike Roberson, won election to a full term with 76.4% of the vote on Tuesday night. The Democrat and longtime sheriff's office veteran defeated Republican challenger Marcus Globuschutz and independent write-in candidate Bruce Coble. Roberson left the sheriff's office after winning the Democratic primary for District 3 of the Chatham County Board of Commissioners in March and ran unopposed in Tuesday's general election for that seat.
