We do need to elect a sherriff, though, so let's avoid an 18 way tie.

Actually, while I am sure that wearing the star will make that person more of a target of the cowboys, the fact that a new sheriff will just be elected will limit their desire to go after him or her specifically, I think.
It would be more to the cowboys' advantage, I think, to try and get their man placed in the position, where he can control who is put in and released from jail.
And actually, I think revealing roles just puts the target more on those who have revealed. For instance, I think Barkeep just put a huge target on himself. His role definition states he knows or can ferret out information on just about anyone in town--including cowboys I imagine. When I first read the role, I thought it was sorta like a seer--which means BK may have outed himself as a seer from the very beginning. I doubt that will end up being very wise.
Back to sheriff, I would suppose we should get some volunteers, as it isn't a position without risk. And usually sheriffs choose to go for that role.
I will not be putting my hat in for sheriff.
