REGIONAL- Nathan Briggs won the open school board seat for the North Woods attendance area. Briggs received 92.7-percent of the votes, 889, with write-ins garnering 7.3-percent. Briggs is a newcomer to the board, and is replacing Dan Manick, who chose not to run for the seat. He ran unopposed.
Ron Marinaro won the open Tower-Soudan attendance area seat with 67.4-percent of the vote. While he was the only name on the ballot, Greg Dostert, of Soudan, had mounted a write-in campaign. Write-in votes took 369 votes (though the Secretary of State website does not break these out by name). Write-in votes for Dostert topped the ballot in Tower and Breitung, but fell behind in Eagles Nest, Greenwood, and Kugler.
Marinaro, who until recently lived in Babbitt and was a coach at Northeast Range and served on Babbitt city commissions, had recently moved to a home on the Vermilion Reservation.
