The six residents running include three incumbents -- Alice Gordon, Stephen Halkiotis and Barry Jacobs -- and three newcomers -- Keith Cook, Jamie Daniel and Robin Staudt.
Daniel, a computer programmer from northern Orange County, said he hopes to bring more commercial activity to the county.
"I want to bring in new businesses," Daniel said. "I want to make sure business is recruited to come into Orange County."
Daniel also said he wants to change the way the commissioners operate.
"I want to bring Orange County a new management style," he said. "I am interested in re-evaluating programs so they can be utilized better."
Gordon said she wants to continue serving as a commissioner to help Orange County schools and the environment.
"We have to make renovations to older schools," Gordon said. "We also have to keep up with the growth of new schools."
Gordon said she plans to continue the Lands Legacy Program, which aims to protect the environment.
"Lands Legacy is a land preservation effort," Gordon said. "(The program) prioritizes for natural resources."
