Will Thayn have a primary opponent?

As many of you know, I have had an opponent in everyone of my primary and general elections. Will this year be different? I don't know for sure until the 19th of March when the filing period ends; however, I have gone to the Gem County and Canyon County Lincoln Days events where candidates usually announce and no one has yet announced. In fact, there is only one race that is contested out of 15 at this point. Rep. Steven Kren has an opponent, a very impressive and active woman. This will be an interesting race.

Why are so few races contested? Is it the economy? Is it because we are cutting budgets and no one wants to enter in this environment? What is going on?
