Mixed Results For Trustee Incumbents

• Incumbent Brooks edges Purtee by 7 votes to retain seat /Maureen Dolan, CdA Press; and: Challengers unseat incumbents in Post Falls, Lakeland and St. Maries /Brian Walker, CdA Press

Question: How do you read these results? Were voters in a “throw-the-bums-out” mood? Did the last-minute flap involving yard signs help or hurt the Purtee/Seymour ticket in the CdA school trustee races?
