In the HBO Poll Tuesday, incumbents Edie Brooks and Bill Hemenway had an easier time against challengers than they did at the Coeur d’Alene School District polls. Of 111 votes cast, Brooks captured 47 and Hemenway 41 to show they were easily preferred here over challengers James Purtee (11) and Terri Seymour (12). In the unofficial actual count, Brooks won by 7 over Purtee and Seymour by about 40 over Seymour.

It is of interesting note the discrepancy between the HBO and the general election of Dist 271 trustees. The data does not support a contention that HBO bloggers are a reflection of the county voter demographics.
