TIME TO GET OUT AND MAKE YOUR VOTE COUNT By Laura Katauskas Staff Reporter
Registered voters are being asked to get out and vote during this year’s Consolidated Election April 9. While vital school board and township races have several candidates aiming to win a seat, many races are uncontested Bolingbrook’s longest-serving mayor, Roger Claar since 1986 -- will continue for another four years and maybe his final term as he hinted at the State of the Village Address. In addition, Village Clerk Carol Penning and trustees Michael Lawler and Joseph Morelli will serve another term. Long-time trustee Sandy Swinkunas decided not to run for re-election. Maria A. Zarate is running unopposed and will take her seat. All involved are running on the same Bolingbrook First Party Slate. Both the Fountaindale Public Library District and the Bolingbrook Park District candidates are running unopposed as well. A full list of the contested races can be found on Page 2
