Answer 1

ElementNotInteractableException is thrown to indicate that although an element is present with in the HTML DOM, it is not in a state that can be interacted with.

You should use WebDriverWait with ExpectedCondition.elementToBeClickable:

WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);
WebElement elecounty = wait.until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.xpath("//div[@class='select_county']//span[text()='select']")));
elecounty.click();
