(Le Mars) — The only contested political race for most of Plymouth County voters involved choosing four people of a list of five for the Extension Council. The top four candidates include: Ed Vondrak, Blaine Reuter, Ann Cosgrove, and Rebecca Easton. Otherwise, each race for office had only one name listed, with the exception of the County Soil and Water Conservation Board that featured three names, but voters were asked to vote for three. With that in mind, we can share that Sheriff Mike Van Otterloo who will retire his position as sheriff was the chosen candidate seeking District 2 County Supervisor. The other county supervisor position involved Gary Horton of Akron. Jeff TeBrink will become the new Plymouth County Sheriff on January 1st. Stacey Feldman will retain her position as the County Auditor. Dr. Tom Jeneary will be representing most of Plymouth County and the northern tier of Woodbury County as State House Representative for District 5.
