Election Results

Yesterday brought us two exciting contests, one was a Presidential primary and the other was right here in our neck of the woods.  While the delegate pursuit between Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton will seemingly continue for now, we have new members-elect and others who were re-elected.

As you know by now, the Mayor, council members, and school board for our fair city were elected yesterday. Your voice was heard and the results are available here. While all of these offices are non-partisan, I think it is worth while to note that 2 of our members will be seated on the next City Council.  Gary Rasmussen and Dan Drummond has been re-elected, and elected respectively. Congratulations!
