Handful of local races in April 2 election

In addition to races for Oconto and Oconto Falls mayor, the Oconto City Council, and four county board supervisors, there is a scattering of contested races for municipal and school board across the county.

For the most part school board elections feature unopposed candidates on the April 2 ballot, with four exceptions.

• Kim Hanson and Gary Huc are running for re-election to the Crivitz School Board with Kris Heidewald also vying for one of the two open positions.

• In the Pulaski School District, Steve Liegl and Jennifer Rybicki are running for the school board member-at-large position. Incumbent Megan Mills-Koehler chose not to seek re-election.

• Jennifer Kruse and Paul Thomson are running for the Town of Breed position on the Suring School Board. Incumbent Wendy Wozniak chose not to run.

• In the Wabeno School District, incumbent board member Dawn C.Jakubiec is joined on the ballot by Raletta Ashbeck, Andrea Brugger and Penny McLaughlin for two available Forest County slots on the board. The district includes part of northern Oconto County.

Other contested races around the county include:

• Four candidates are running for two slots on the Brazeau Town Board — Incumbents Randy Nasgovitz and David Parmentier and challengers Rodney Gretzon and Matthew Milatzo.

• Four people are running for three positions on the Suring Village Board — challenger Angie Whiting and incumbents Richard Kramp, Jacob School and Randy Schuettpelz.
