Today (11/2) is Election Day across Iowa.  Local mayoral and city council seats are on the ballot along with school board elections and local ballot issues.  In Oskaloosa, Mayor David Krutzfeldt is running unopposed and there are four open city council seats.  Oskaloosa voters will also decide on two issues related to the school district.  The first is whether all seven Oskaloosa School Board seats should be at-large seats or should the district stay with one at-large member and the other six coming from specified districts. The second would specify how the Oskaloosa district would use money from a state education fund.

In Ottumwa, Rick Bick and Rick Johnson are running for Mayor to succeed Tom Lazio.  There are also six candidates for three seats on the Ottumwa City Council.

There’s also a $28 million bond issue for Indian Hills Community College in the ten counties that Indian Hills serves—that’s most of the No Coast Network listening area.

Polls in Iowa are open from 7am until 8pm.
