2024 Presidential Election Results
Nutshell version. Complete results later tonight.
Gilmore/Elberta went 218 for Harris/Walz and 179 for Trump/Vance. Elissa Slotkin beat Mike Rogers decisively 220 to 170, and Callie Barr surpassed Jack Bergman 220 to 175. John Roth rewon his state legislature seat with 175 votes to Larry Knight’s 159, with independent candidate Cathy Albro making a decent showing considering all the straight ticket votes, at 53.
In aggregate, we liked the Jail Millage and the EMS Millage but not the Road Commission’s new building. We voted for John Mead. Gary Sauer beat Javed Shah by just 4 votes for District 7 commission seat.
But that’s just in our little district of 708 registered voters, 405 of whom voted.
All the Gilmore candidates (all uncontested seats) got enough votes to be elected.
The Village elected Brett McGregor and Ryan Fiebing to four more years on the board of trustees. Kenneth Holmes got 13 write-in votes, but 12 of those voters wrote “Ken Holmes” instead of “Kenneth” and the decision now goes to the Board of Canvassers to decide whether all those votes count. He needs three votes, I think, to win. Write-ins: They’re tricky—for voters, candidates, and election workers. More on that and other details later!
