Nearly 28% of eligible voters cast ballots in Tuesday’s general election for municipal councils, school boards, township trustees and a variety of local issues. Voters in the southern portion of the county were in the mood for change, though incumbents had strong support in other areas. Above, John Edl, precinct manager, talks with officials at the Union County Board of Elections as he works to open a voting machine Tuesday at the National Guard Training Center in Marysville. Poll workers Bobbie Dienhart, left, Karen Le Grand, center, and Donald Myers, right, observe the process.
