Show me the money!

Questions are starting to pop up regarding some cost estimates to run a special election in Shelby county. Estimates in excess of a $600,000.00 bill are being thrown to the state for what is currently an uncontested race. But oddly enough a similar race in 2007 only cost $200,000.00.

Why the jump in cost? Shouldn't it be cheaper since Shelby county is doing it on the same day as another special election for mayor?

This is starting to sound like when you go to dinner with a friend you don't really like that much. They have steak and you have french fries. When they get the bill, they tell you their portion is $3.00 and yours is $19.85.

How does that work?
