Town election results

 

November 5, 2021



Unofficial results of the Ekalaka general election show that Elizabeth Barth and Jimmy W. Mackay were both re-elected to the town council on Tuesday night. The two defeated Jonathan Champlin and A.J. Limberger and will serve two-year terms. Barth received the most votes with 85, followed by Mackay with 79, Champlin with 55 and Limberger with 41.

Lennet I. Cantwell, who ran unopposed, received 102 votes for mayor and Melissa Lovec, also unopposed, received 111 votes for a four-year term on the council.

In all, 142 ballots were counted on Tuesday night, about 56 percent of the 253 ballots that were mailed out to registered voters in Ekalaka.

When current Mayor Vicki Fix won the mayoral race in 2017 as a write-in, 190 ballots were returned, a 71 percent voter turnout at the time.

An official canvass of Tuesday’s election will take place next Monday.
