Three Vie for Crook County Commission Seat

Three candidates are running for a commission seat on the Crook County Commission.  Incumbent Brian Barney, a Prineville native and former rancher, faces challenges from Corey Whalen and Doug Muck in in the May 17 Primary Election. All three are vying for Position 2 on the county court. It's Barney's third bid for the position he's held since 2017. He's running on his background which includes helping establish a new Crook County jail and airport, and helping the county's approach to the drought crisis. Whalen, of Prineville, is a farmer and former business owner, he said he wants to encourage young people to get into politics. Muck, also a resident of Prineville, is a rancher and entrepreneur, and hopes to see more accountability in county government. Two candidates will advance to the November election.
