Supervisor of Elections Robert Bender speaks publicly for the first time since Bruce Childers filed a motion to get put on the August primary ballot. Childers' motion was denied on Friday. 

“The thing I hate most about this is that the integrity of the office was questioned, and the judge denied the motion because she saw that we followed the law,” Bender said. 

“It didn't make the decision any easier. I didn't celebrate any this weekend. As a candidate, it's not how I want to win. As a supervisor of elections, it's not how I want my office to be a part of controversy.”
