Primary looms for Democratic registrar

At least two Democrats plan to seek election this year as a city registrar.Incumbent Mary Rydingsward and party activist Bruce Suchinski both said they intend to run for registrar this year.Republican Registrar Sharon Krawiecki said she plans to seek reelection.Rydingsward is in her first term. She won the office in 2010 after knocking off the party's nominee, Elliott Nelson, to become the Democratic standard bearer in the general election.Since there are two registrars, from different parties, capturing the backing of the Democratic Party virtually guarantees election.There may be other candidates interested in the position as well.
