Elections
2014
The August 26, 2014, general election in Lee County featured three seats up for election. The general election determined if candidates for each seat could garner a majority of the vote total. Because no candidate received 50 percent plus one of the general election votes in District 4, the top two vote recipients advanced to the runoff election on November 4, 2014. The District 4 race featured incumbent Don H. Armstrong and challengers Arvella Clare, Richard L. Dunmire and Steve Teuber, a former board member. Armstrong and Teuber advanced to the runoff election.
The District 1 and 5 races were determined in the general election. Mary Fischer won re-election to the District 1 seat against Marilyn Stout. Pam LaRiviere and Carla Ronco ran to replace Thomas Scott, who did not file for re-election. LaRiviere won the open seat.
