Primary election to narrow candidate fields

EPHRATA — Races for local, statewide and federal offices will be winnowed to two candidates in today’s primary election. Not all races attracted more than two candidates, so not all races are on the primary ballot. In Grant County, four people are running for Commission District 3, which opened when longtime commissioner Cindy Carter retired. In the primary, however, only voters who live within the commissioner district are eligible to cast ballots.
