How many times in history has this ever happened?
Mr. ____ was elected to the office of county surveyor for the first time 28 years
ago and retained the office ever since. Last fall Mr. ____ did not seek the office
but his name was written in on both the republican and democratic tickets and was
elected on both.
1935
