Editorial: Selections for constable races

In Henderson, Constable Earl Mitchell, a Republican, is facing Democrat J. David Burress. Burress has good ideas, yet the clear choice is Mitchell. Earl Mitchell's experience and excellent job as constable is deserving of another term.

In the hotly contested North Las Vegas constable's race, Constable Herb Brown is facing Republican Steven Bergstrom. Brown, a Democrat, was selected to replace Lou Tabat who retired earlier this year. Brown has 26 years of law enforcement experience, including serving as a U.S. marshal for the District of Nevada and assistant chief of police for North Las Vegas. Herb Brown is solid, respected and the best choice for the job, receiving the Sun's endorsement.
