Elections
2016
Three of the seven seats on the Warrick County School Corporation school board were up for at-large general election on November 8, 2016. Board incumbents Brenda Metzger and Benjamin Stilwell filed for re-election and faced challengers Donald Brooks, Lynda Glover, Daniel Godeke, Mary Harper, Alvin Holder, Jon Jenkins, Thomas McDaniel, Tim Mosbey, and Derrick Smith. Mosbey and Metzger were the first- and second-highest vote recipients, each winning terms on the board. Stilwell was the third-highest vote recipient, but the board does not allow more than two people on the board from a single township. Since Stillwell, like Mosbey and Metzger, lived in Ohio Township, he was not able to win the third seat. Instead, Lynda Glover won the spot on the board.[1][2][3]

Funding
The Warrick County Election Office did not publish campaign finance reports on its website as of October 26, 2016.[4]
School board candidates in Indiana who received more than $500 in contributions or made more than $500 in expenditures had to have a principal committee. This committee was designated by a candidate to accept contributions and make expenditures to promote him or her for the election. Each committee was required to have a chairperson and a treasurer, and no contribution or expenditure could be accepted or made on behalf of the candidate's committee without the authorization of the chairperson or treasurer.
Once the $500 threshold was reached, the candidate had to also file a Statement of Organization form no later than at noon, 10 days after the candidate exceeded the limit. The requirement to form a principal committee and file a statement was lifted for candidates who did not meet the $500 threshold requirement. The pre-election report was due October 21, 2016, and the annual report was due January 18, 2017.[5]
