Ed Robb, Albemarle sheriff since January 2000, has announced he won’t run for re-election. Two potential sheriffs have announced their candidacy: Current Charlottesville Police Captain J.E. “Chip” Harding will likely snag the Republican nomination and Larry Claytor, who has run before as an independent, will seek the Democratic nomination. Robb, who will turn 70 this year, will serve as sheriff through December 31.
