(1,637 posts)Typically, the only requirement is that you win a plurality of the votes in the Republican Primary. Theres usually a pretty good salary for a 4 or 6 year term. A lot of people know this so theres often a lot of competitors making the actual number of votes needed pretty low. This often results some pretty whacky characters on the ballot with a good chance to win. If you are involved with the local mega church or are a real estate broker with your name on signs around the county you have a distinct advantage. When I lived in Montana I followed local politics and saw some pretty crazy stuff.
