Incumbents win state House and school board races

Election results

Incumbents won the state House races and the school board contests described in the election results. The results also included a Democratic victory in the open District 4 school board seat.

The outcome gives incumbents another term in the state House and on the school board seats covered by the results. District 4 will have a new school board representative because its seat was open.

District 4 school board seat

The District 4 contest differed from the incumbent races. A Democrat won the open seat, rather than an incumbent retaining it.

The result identifies the party affiliation of the winner but does not include the candidate’s name, vote total or margin. Those details are not included here.

What the results mean

The results produce two different outcomes in local education and legislative races: incumbents retained the seats described in the state House and school board contests, while the open District 4 school board seat changed hands through an election won by a Democrat.

The state House and school board races are separate contests. The result in District 4 does not change the outcome reported for the incumbent races.
