Filing concludes for city, school elections

Posted

Filing began Jan. 15 and concluded Feb. 14 for a place on the ballot in the May 3 city and school elections. April 3 is the last day to register to vote in this election and April 22 is the last day to apply to vote by mail. Early voting will be April 22-29.

Corrigan-Camden ISD and Goodrich ISD will be holding elections, as will the City of Corrigan and the City of Onalaska. Onalaska ISD was slated to hold an election but will be able to cancel it as no one filed to challenge the incumbents.

Positions that will be on the ballot in the Corrigan-Camden ISD include Position 6, presently held by Jason Benjamin, and Position 7, presently held by David Ray. Both incumbents filed and Erika Alvarez also filed for Position 7.

Positions 5, 6 and 7 will be on the ballot in the Goodrich ISD. Positions 5 and 6 are presently held by Julie Mack and Thomas Finger, respectively, and Position 7 is presently vacant. The GISD administration office was unavailable at press time.

Three “at large” positions would have been on the ballot in the Onalaska ISD, those presently held by Ted Wiggins, Dennis Hodge and Chris Topkins. All three incumbents filed for reelection but no one else filed so the election will be cancelled.

In the City of Onalaska, three “at large” positions on the city council will be on the ballot – those presently held by Shirley Gilmore, T.D. Jennings and Zachary Davies. Both Gilmore and Davies filed for reelection. Others that filed include Joseph Polizzi, Traci Dennison and Howard A. Smith.

The City of Corrigan was unavailable at press time.
