Election filing deadline this Friday

LAKE COUNTY – For those interested in serving their community, this Friday is the deadline to sign up for numerous board and commission seats that will be on the ballot this November.

Up for election are seats on boards of education, water and fire protection districts.

The process of signing up is a simple one, said Jim Emenegger, an elections office assistant.

For one, you don't need to go out and collect signatures. “It's just filling out a form,” said Emenegger. “There's no fee or anything.”

The only item that requires a fee is if someone wants to include a candidates statement in the voter handbook, Emenegger added.

The county Registrar of Voters Office reported that the following seats are open and will be elected Nov. 6. All are four-year terms unless otherwise noted, and become vacant on the first Friday in December or when a successor is elected and qualifies for office.
