| Description | Orange County Tax Collector Earl K. Wood died early Monday morning at the age of 96, setting off a scramble among Democrats to decide who would run for the post he'd held for 11 consecutive four-year terms.
The death of Wood, who in recent years often used a wheelchair and rarely went to the office, will require Democrats to name a successor-candidate within a week – and is certain to revive a years-old debate over whether the elected position should be abolished. |
