Sarpy County Sheriff Jeff Davis isn't the only one taking advantage of media coverage of noteworthy events as next Tuesday's primary election draws nearer.Nebraska Legislative District 20 candidate Brad Ashford has also been active in making news. Ashford, who is running against Carol Casey, has been prominently featured in two Omaha World-Herald stories unrelated to the election.
In an April 29th story by reporter Erin Grace, Ashford was among those on hand at the debut of a new home (one of seven) that will welcome new Omaha Housing Authority-qualifying families. Ashford is the current director of the OHA.
On Wednesday, Grace featured Ashford in a story on a policy change OHA is considering that would put working people on even footing with the elderly and disabled - two groups that already receive preferential treatment in housing choices. According to the story, OHA is seeking public comment and could vote on the policy at its next board meeting, May 25 - more than two weeks after the primary.
It was not mentioned in either article that Ashford is running for the District 20 legislative spot.
Casey, a self-employed management consultant and the mother of nine children, has not been mentioned in a World-Herald story since a profile on all Nebraska legislative state senator candidates was published April 13.
