Field of Trustee Candidates Returns to Four

Brenda Szumski filed paperwork yesterday to run a write-in campaign for Village Trustee.

Shortly after former write-in Village Trustee candidate Hugo Rojas , another candidate has filed to bring the pool of candidates back to four.

Yesterday, Brenda Szumski, 4918 N. Elkhart Ave. joined Marquette University student William Demet, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee professor Andrew Martin and communications consultant Lauri Rollings in the four-way write-in campaign to fill two vacant Trustee seats left vacant by Trustee Thomas Fehring, who will not seek another term, and Julie Siegel, who is running unopposed for the village president seat held by Kathleen Pritchard. Pritchard will not seek another term after nine years of service.

The top two write-in candidates in the April 5 election each will win a trustee seat, assuming they are legally qualified. A special election would be held in the event of a tie.
