Seven of those were yes votes. <br />The provisional ballots were checked by a canvassing board <br />consisting of Lunceford, elector Cheryl Lynn, and designated election <br />official Dan Schler. <br />Lunceford was an unopposed candidate for the water district board. <br />Lynn is the wife of another unopposed board candidate, Dan Lynn. <br />Lunceford said they checked the provisional ballots three times <br />against assessor records and voter registration lists. Twenty -one <br />were disqualified mainly because owners had excluded the <br />properties. A few of the provisional voters weren't on either the state <br />or county voter registration lists, he said. <br />Gregg Johnson won the only contested board seat with 287 votes, <br />versus 212 for Kent Curtis. Those don't include the 10 qualified <br />provisional ballots, Lunceford said. <br />Other unopposed candidates for the new five - member board are <br />Patty Dressel and Bob Beebe. <br />I http: / /www.pinerivertimes.com/ news. asp? artid = 553 /www.pinerivertimes.com/news.asp ?artid =553 <br />Bayfield, CO <br />65 °F/ 19 °C <br />Clear <br />at 12:16 P <br />Click for Forecast <br />COLLORADO � <br />P <br />ASSOCIATION <br />9/3/2008 <br />The 2008 La Plata County Fair attracted <br />an estimated 10,000 people <br />last weekend.
