Mark Kelly is campaigning to be clerk of Arlington’s Circuit Court, a position vacated by the retirement of Clerk David Bell.
“I think we offer the people of Arlington a great slate of candidates,” committee Chairman Rafael Bejar said. “We provide an alternate position to the existing County Board.”
Ferguson is not seeking re-election, but is running against Kelly for the clerk’s position.
Kelly was chief of staff to the former Rep. Jim Ryun of Kansas for six years.
“The clerk has hundreds of statutory responsibilities, and I want to put my years of day-to-day management experience to work for the people of Arlington,” Kelly said in a statement.
His platform includes installing a new online land record filing system and improving the clerk’s Web site.
And, here's the Sun Gazette Excerpts
County Board Chairman Paul Ferguson's bid for Clerk of the Circuit Court won't go unchallenged in November.
Mark Kelly on May 23 picked up the Arlington County Republican Committee's endorsement for the position, which is being vacated by the retiring David Bell. The clerk's post is the top administrative position for the local court system, which serves Arlington and Falls Church.
“The people of Arlington can rest assured that, as clerk, I will effectively aid in the administration of justice,” Kelly said in a statement. “And, if you buy a home, get married or serve jury duty in Arlington, the Clerk's office will be there to serve you.”
The challenger faces an uphill battle, squaring off against the popular Ferguson in a year when turnout is expected to be light - which, in Arlington, favors Democrats.
But the new Republican nominee said he would make a strong run.
“Arlington voters deserve an alternative to one-party control of each and every constitutional office, and they certainly deserve an alternative to Mr. Ferguson's track record in office,” he said. “I have a vision for improving the service provided by this office to a level that is second to none.”
Like Ferguson, Kelly is an attorney.

About me:
A 10 year public servant on Capitol Hill, I served for six years as Chief of Staff to Representative Jim Ryun. While serving as Chief of Staff, I led a staff of 15 full time employees to several successful public policy efforts as well as effectively processing thousands of constituent inquiries each month.
The Clerk's office impacts our every day lives here in Arlington. I believe my practical day-to-day management experience is right for the Arlington Clerk's office.
