Primary Election results
Tuesday’s Primary Election offered three contested races and one referenda question for local voters. Two county board districts were contested on the Republican ticket.
With the retirement of current circuit clerk Kim Evans, K. Johnson Anderson was a winner over Suzanne Suzie Shell.
In District 2, County Board Chairman Robert Lindgren lost his seat. Tim Nuss and Leslie King were top vote-getters. Lindgren said he hopes the county board will find ways to raise revenues while holding the line on cuts that would hurt the county operations.
In District 3, the top vote getters were Randy Ferguson, Bernadette Ray and Jerry Wright. Emily Lattz came up short.
A Mona Township Cemetery Fund posed a referenda question for maintenance upkeep. The referenda question asked voters ‘if they’re in favor of the levy of a tax not to exceed .20 percent to control, maintain and purchase land and construction of necessary buildings for cemeteries.” Results were favorable to support the cemetery.
