Election Candidates – Contest noted for Glenwood City School Board

This is the time of the year that candidates must file to be placed on the ballot in the Spring General Election. Open at this election are seats on local village boards, school boards and the City Council, along with members of the county board and this year will also include an election for the Wisconsin Supreme Court.

As of this date, some of the villages have yet to hold their annual caucus and those reports will be printed at a later date.

But for the area boards, in most cases, it is only the incumbents that have filed for re-election, with one exception, and that is the School Board for the Glenwood City School district.

Here, incumbents for the three open seats have filed along with a fourth person. The new name on the ballot will be that of Tryn Gross who will try to capture one of the three seats that are now held by John Logghe, Lori Klinger and Charlotte Heimer.

At the Boyceville School District, only the two incumbents, Tim Sempf and Jeremy Mittlestadt have filed for re-election for a three-year term.

The City Council has three open seats along with the Mayor’s seat that is up for election in April. Only two incumbents filed to be returned to the Council table and they are, Ken Peterson and Steve Lee. Current member Nancy Hover has chosen not to seek another term on the Council.

John Larson has filed papers for another term as Glenwood City Mayor.

In Boyceville, only two of the three incumbents have filed for re-election to the Village Board. They are Jonathan Farrell and Keith Sorensen. Long time board member, Herb Dow is not seeking another term on the Village Board.
