Area candidates file for November general elections

MARSHALL — The filing period for local races in this November’s elections closed Tuesday. Several cities, townships and school districts across Lyon County will be holding elections for a variety of public offices. While online candidate listings from the Minnesota Secretary of State’s Office as of Wednesday showed a few races without candidates, others have plenty of people in the running.

In the city of Tracy, which is holding a special election for mayor as well as electing five council members, a total of 10 people filed to run for council, and two candidates filed for mayor.

Municipal, township and school elections won’t be the only races on the ballot in November. The candidate filing period for county commissioner and soil and water supervisor seats ran from May 19 through June 2. Among the candidates who filed were three current Lyon County commissioners: Charlie Sanow, Gary Crowley and Rick Anderson. All three are running unopposed for re-election in their respective commissioner districts.
