Still no commissioner candidates

Why is it that nobody is filing for the open county commissioner seat formerly held by Marcia Funke? Marcia has already announced she will not be running for re-election, yet nobody has signed up. This area covers all of Washington and then the townships north to the state border and then west to Mahaska.
While we have nobody running for this spot (and Gene Helms is the only one to file for his current spot in his Linn/Clifton area district) our neighbors to the east have 11 people running for an open Marshall County Commissioner position and that position only lasts until November's election.
Won't anyone in Washington step up and try to help the county progress into the future?
