3 Incumbents File for Re-Election on Village Board (UPDATE)

New Lenox trustees Annette Bowden, Dave Smith and Ray Tuminello were the only people to file for the April 9 election. The filing period goes through Dec. 26.

The candidate filing period for the April 9 local elections began Monday, and so far the only people to file for the New Lenox Village Board are incumbents.

Trustees Annette Bowden, Dave Smith and Ray Tuminello all filed petitions for re-election Monday. All three have open seats, but would run uncontested if no one else files to challenge them.

The filing period runs through Wednesday, Dec. 26.

In the last municipal election, there was also no contention for the Village Board seats. Trustees David Butterfield, Nancy Dye and Keith Madsen all ran unopposed, as did Mayor Tim Baldermann. 

Smith was appointed to the board in 1990 and has served five terms. Bowden was appointed the following year and has also served five terms. Tuminello was elected to the board in 2005 and has since been re-elected.

The municipal election is April 9. The Village Board positions are non-partisan, so no primary election is needed.
