Today’s the Day to Vote

(Crystal A. Proxmire, 11/8/2011)

Today the residents of Ferndale will have the opportunity to vote for who will represent them on City Council, including who will serve as Mayor. Current Mayor Dave Coulter is running against Raymond Willis for the Mayor’s seat.  Dan Martin and Sherry Wells are facing Michael Lennon, the incumbent. The three of them are running for two open seats on City Council.

There are also several uncontested Library Board seats on the ballot.  For Library Board’s full six year terms, the public can vote for two and there are two men running – James O’Donnell and John Sterritt. For Library Board Director Tiffani Gagne is running unopposed.  And for a partial term Library Board Director there are two seats open and the public gets two votes.  Judeen Bartos and Monique Herzig are the candidates.
