Director Lewis reports that there has been limited interest in township, borough and school district offices in the days leading up to the petition circulation period. A list of all party nominations to be decided on May 21 appears below. Nominees from that election will have their names appear on the Nov.  5 Municipal Election ballot, which will determine who fills offices ranging from borough council member, township supervisor, township/borough auditor and school director, as well as county offices of prothonotary/clerk of courts, register of wills/recorder of deeds, sheriff, treasurer, commissioner (3) and auditor (3).

Registered Democratic or Republican voters who are on the rolls as of April 22 will be eligible to cast ballots in the May 21 election.
