In what Gasconade County Clerk Lesa Lietzow called the lightest turnout she has ever seen,
Bruce Cox and Brian Chorley won seats on the Hermann city council in Tuesday's election.
After seven precincts were in Tuesday night, 17.95 percent had gone to the polls.
"That's the lowest I can remember for an April election," said Lietzow.
Cox, a first-time candidate, won a three-person race in Ward 1, recording 119 votes to take the seat held by long-time alderman, John Penning, who received 40 votes. A second challenger, Bob Arnsmeyer, also received more votes (56) than Penning.
Chorley edged challenger Joseph Gleeson 119 to 92 to keep his Ward 2 seat on the board of alderman.
The Gasconade County R-1 School Board race returned the two incumbents, Craig Schannuth and Marilyn Rethemeyer, who were seeking re-election to the board, and joining them will be Brenda Bader, who ended up garnering the most votes out of five candidates.
