Time is running out: UCCCJSD Board of Trustees candidates desperately needed

By John Estridge with information provided by the Union County Clerk’s Office

Union County is having a Union County College Corner Joint School District Board of Trustees election this year.

But it is hard to tell that from the number of candidates who have signed up for the election.

There are three seats up for election, and one person has signed up for the election.

According to Union County Clerk Loree Persinger, interested candidates have until noon Friday, August 21, to sign up for the election.

The seats up for election are: Harrison Twp., Center Twp., Town of Liberty and Harmony Twp. That means the candidate must live in that particular township or Liberty to run for that seat.

Petitions for the election can be picked up at the Clerk’s Office on the bottom floor of the courthouse. Ten registered voters must sign the petition for the candidate to be eligible to be placed on the ballot.

Anyone, who needs information, should call the clerk’s office at (765) 458-6121.
