Elections
2014
Four at-large board incumbents were up for re-election. Incumbents Christina Scott, Jeff Presley, Robert Larson and Terry Rothmann were all eligible to run for re-election, but Rothmann did not run in the election. While Scott and Larson were seeking regular re-election, Presley was seeking election after being appointed to the board in May 2013 to complete the remainder of John Zellmer's unexpired term. Presley had previously served on the board.[1] The three incumbents were joined by newcomers Alex Kochanowski, Patricia Baker, Terri A. Fink and Samuel L. Levin on the general election ballot. The winners, in order of most votes received, were Kochanowski, Baker, Scott and Presley. The top three winners were elected to full, three-year terms, while fourth place winner Presley was elected to the remainder of the unexpired term he was originally appointed to which expired April 2015.[2]
Results
Note: The top three winners of the 2014 general election were elected to regular, three-year terms. The fourth-place finisher was elected to an unexpired one-year term. This special term was needed to fill a vacancy due to the resignation of John Zellmer.
