My county made elected positions all non partisan. The primary election selects the top two winners, who then go to a runoff in November if no one candidate gets moee than 50% of the vote. It's solved most problems in local politics and elections since then have mostly selected level headed candidates. It's awesome.
Yeah, our local ones are "nonpartisan" too, but that just means you have to get specific endorsements (and politics wonks can tell which endorsements are proxies for the local GOP and Dems).
