Candidates face filing deadline for state, county

Tuesday at 5 p.m. is the deadline for candidates to file for county, state, legislative and judicial offices for this year's Aug. 2 primary and Nov. 8 general elections.

Winners of the party primaries for each office will face each other in November - but still could face write-in challengers in the general election, even if no candidates filed in other parties' primaries.
