Leet commissioners

Four Democrats vied for two ballot spots in the board of commissioners race. Donna Adipietro, the only incumbent in the race, received 148 votes, while Daniel Peluso received 108.

While two Republicans, Rody Nash and Stephanie Turner, were vying for two spots on the ballot in the Republican race (Jeff Besong withdrew from the race too late for his name to be removed from the ballot), write-ins bumped Turner down to third place. So, a write-in candidate could join Nash on the November ballot.

Just 10 write-in votes are needed to get on the ballot in November, according to county election officials.

Those who receive enough write-in votes to run in the general election must accept the party’s nomination and be qualified to run before their names are placed on the ballot.
