Ballot in North Irwin remains empty
Serving on North Irwin’s government is a job that apparently none of the small borough’s voters want.
Just like in the primary, no one is on the ballot for one of four two-year terms on borough council.
Mayor John McIntyre is running for reelection on both the Democratic and Republican tickets.
No one won a nomination to council through write-in votes in the May primary.
Dave Jones, president of council, could not be reached for comment.
In the 2019 general election, Dane Frye and Lauren Jones each won seats on the seven-member council with five write-in votes, and Casey Parker won with two write-in votes. He had tied with Jared Catherine and Chris Cervi, but won in a tiebreaking contest with the other two candidates.
