Marysville School Board

The lower left corner of this sample ballot from the Union County Board of Elections shows five candidates running for Marysville School Board, though one was withdrawn from consideration. Bob Sements has dropped from the race and in Jerome Township candidate Jay Regula has also withdrawn. The announcements came too late to be taken off the ballot, so voting machines will carry signs noting that votes for the two individuals will not be tallied. (Graphic submitted)
