The election for Mountain View School Division School Trustee is taking place on October 26th, and as it stands, the division is very short on candidates. Senior Elections Official Kirk Dawson says time is running out for people to sign up to run.
"There's nine positions, nine trustees that they look for, four wards, and there's really just one nomination package that's been completed so far. We have had some packages picked up, but we know we have at least four vacancies, of people not running that were incumbents last time, so there is certainly a need out there."
Nomination packages can only be submitted until 4 p.m. on Tuesday, September 20th, so Dawson says there is some urgency with getting nominations in. Anyone with questions about how to run in the election can reach out to Dawson at (204) 572-0914.
