GOSHEN COUNTY – After an unprecedented spring semester and months of tough decisions due to COVID-19, 11 Goshen County residents filed to run for five seats on the Goshen County School District No. 1 Board of Trustees.
Those elected after the general election on Nov. 3 will serve a four-year term. Two members, Ryan Clayton and Carlos Saucedo, seek reelection, and Matthew Cushman, Sharlet Duffy, Dylan Hager, Garrett Meyer, Danielle Murphy, Taylor Schmick, Michael Sussex, Gretchen Wollert and Jane Zulauf are new to the race.
Incumbents Christine Miller, Jeff McClun and Rod Wagner did not file to run again.
Several familiar faces and one newcomer are seeking election to the Eastern Wyoming College Board of Trustees. Incumbents Randy Adams, Robert Baumgartner and Mike Varney are joined by first-time candidate Kurt Sittner running for a four-year term. Incumbent Judith Bartmann is seeking a two year term.
Justin Burkart will run unopposed for the open Goshen County Commissioner seat after winning the primary with more than 40% of the vote, unseating incumbent Russell “Pinky” Walter.
Rick Patterson, Dennis Kelly and Eric Sharp are on the ballot for two Torrington City Council seats. Patterson earned the most votes in the primary, 40% followed by incumbent Kelly.
Republican Incumbent for Clerk of District Court Brandi Correa ran unopposed in the primary and will again in the general election.
In a Sept. 1 GCC meeting, Goshen County Clerk Cindy Kenyon said roughly 700 more residents turned out for the 2020 primary elections than the 2016 primary. She said she expects nearly every registered voter in the county will cast a ballot either in-person or via mail.
