And five candidates have thrown their hats in the ring for the District Two seat currently held by Anne Keeler, who is not seeking reelection.
Those five are, alphabetically, Mickey Hamilton, Jr., Frederick Metcalf, Kenneth Perea, Phillip Skinner and John Sweetser.
The election will be held Tuesday, February 5th, 2013.
County Clerk Karen Smyer said it will be a countywide election, because there is a question before all Luna County voters on the continuation of a 2-mill levy for capital improvements in
the district.
The election of the two school board seats will appear only on the respective districts’ ballots.
Voter registration for the School Board and mill levy election closes January 8th.
