Election 2009 coverage
A few items about today’s General Election.
First, I don’t care who you’re backing, what issues are most important or how busy you think you are, GET OUT AND VOTE. Polls are open today from 6:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. Turnout this November is expected to be light, unfortunately. So, no excuses.
It’s your right and privilege, and every vote counts… Just ask the folks in Fairfield where the last mayoral race was decided by five people who felt it was important enough to cast their ballot.
For information on your polling place, visit the Butler County Board of Elections.
Races of local note include Issue 17, a 3-mill replacement levy for police services in Liberty Twp.; a crowded race in West Chester, where nine locals are vying for two open seats on the Board of Trustees, including incumbents Catherine Stoker and Lee Wong; and, the Lakota Board of Education, where five locals are seeking three open seats, including incumbents Jamie Green and Joan Powell.
Also in Liberty Twp., trustees Patrick Hiltman and Christine Matacic are running unopposed.
We’ll be covering those closely throughout the day, and have up-to-the minute results this evening after the polls close.
