Young versus old in this race

SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) - October 25, 2010

College junior Chelsea Roose hopes to unseat 89-year-old Elma Konya as trustee of Marshall County's North Township.

But Roose says she doesn't want to make the election about age.

The 20-year-old Republican says she thinks "people are ready for a change."

Konya, the Democratic incumbent, has been in office for four decades.

She still keeps the township's financial records on paper and takes pride in their accuracy.
