Brumfield Seeks Recorder's Job
July 28, 2016 at 4:25 p.m.
The prosecutor and sheriff races aren't the only contested elections this spring.
The race for Kosciusko County recorder will feature three candidates, including LaShawn Brumfield, the only candidate who currently works in the office.
Brumfield, along with Denise Lance and Doug Mayer, are seeking to replace Alice Anglin, who has served the maximum two terms and is prevented by law from running again.
Brumfield, 26, has worked in the office for two years and said she believes she is qualified and ready to run the office, which oversees the recording of deeds with the county. The office works closely with local abstract companies in an effort to keep tax records current.
Brumfield said she has no immediate plans for major changes if elected, but would work hard toward training office workers with new computer programs.
She said she would consider suggestions from the public on ways to improve the office.
"I'm open-minded," she said.
Brumfield would be the youngest candidate among the three, but said she doesn't view that as a disadvantage.
"I am the only candidate with the working knowledge and understanding of today's operations in the recorder's office," she said.
She is a graduate of Tippecanoe Valley High School and has attended Ivy Tech. [[In-content Ad]]
