Nicholson currently serves as a Captain with the New Castle Police Department, where he has served for 36 years, including 8 as Chief.

This is Nicholson's second run for Sheriff; he ran four years ago and lost the primary to the current lame-duck Sheriff John M. Sproles.

Bilbrey and Nicholson discuss the campaign, Nicholson's views on Henry County's current state, and his plans for the county if elected.

After the interview, Bilbrey again shares that he feels underwhelmed by nearly everyone running for office in the 2026 midterm general election, which is just two days away.

Bilbrey is ready to put this election behind him and look ahead to the 2027 municipal elections, which he believes could have a much greater impact on local politics and government across East Central Indiana.

Bilbrey then looks ahead to the Muncie City Council meeting scheduled for tomorrow, Monday, November 2, 2026. He reviews the agenda and notes that it appears to be a relatively quiet meeting.

Lastly, Bilbrey shares a few quick thoughts on the Delaware-Muncie Metropolitan Board of Zoning Appeals, which met last Thursday, October 29, 2026.

At that meeting, the McKinley Neighborhood and Mayor Dan Ridenour's administration once again found themselves on opposite sides of this important issue. Bilbrey believes this was merely the opening round of a much larger fight in the months ahead.
