They will make a little history today at the Delaware County Courthouse.
Something will happen there that has not happened since the mid-1970's.
Democrats will join the process of governing Delaware County.
Democrats Kevin Madden and Brian Zidek, who were victorious at the polls in November, will be sworn into office.
They will be followed by three county row officers taking the oath of office. All three also are Democrats. Jerry Sanders will become the new sheriff; Mary J. Walk will assume duties of register of wills; and Joanne Phillipps will become the new county controller.
All of this will take place amid some pomp in the Honorable John V. Diggins Ceremonial Courtroom in the Delaware County Courthouse.
Immediately following the ceremonies, County Council will holds its annual reorganization meeting. Despite the win by two Democrats in November, Republicans continue to hold a 3-2 edge on the county's ruling body.
Why do I get the feeling neither Madden or Zidek are in line to be the new chairman or vice chairman.
We'll be there to bring you all the latest developments in a fairly historic day at the courthouse.
