No incumbents file for re-election
CENTER – Neither of the incumbents on the Wausa Village Board of Trustees whose seats will be on ballots this year filed for re-election.
The incumbent filing deadline of 5 p.m. July 15 for the 2024 general election, set for Nov. 5, came and went without Wausa village board members Cheryl Marks and Ron Nelson entering their names to run for their positions again.
The non-incumbent filing deadline for the general election is 5 p.m. Aug. 1 for the races of Knox County village boards, the Cedar-Knox Public Power District Board of Directors, the North Central Public Power District Board of Directors and the Educational Service Units No. 1 and 8 boards of directors.
As a reminder, no write-in votes will be counted unless a person has filed a write-in affidavit and is eligible for the particular race he or she is running for. The filing deadline for write-in candidates is 5 p.m. Oct. 25; again, write-in affidavits are required.
People are asked to call Knox County Clerk Joann Fischer at 402-288-5604 if they have any questions on the upcoming general election.
