Early voting, which began Oct. 17, has been slow. As of Tuesday at 5 p.m., 40 people had cast ballots in the town board election. Absentee voting by mail ended Oct. 29.
Mooresville’s town board election features two contested races. Incumbent Ward 3 commissioner Mac Herring is facing challenger Frank Owens, and incumbent At-Large commissioner Rhett Dusenbury is running against challenger David Coble.
Mayor Miles Atkins and Ward 4 commissioner Lisa Qualls are unopposed in their re-election bids.
Also on the ballot are two candidates for two seats on the Mooresville Graded School District Board of Education. The candidates, Greg Whitfield and Leon Pridgen, will take the seats occupied by Karen Hart and Nancy Cross, who are not seeking reelection.
