MINOT — The biggest upset of the night was Alderman Tom Ross beating out his opponents Miranda Schuler and Incumbent Shaun Sipma to be the next mayor of Minot.

"Now the work begins. We've got exciting times ahead of us. We're going to get people engaged," Ross said.

Minot's City Council Incumbents Paul Pitner, Mark Jantzer, and Lisa Olson held onto their seats, while Zach Raknerud came in fourth. Darrick Trudell still appeared on the ballot and received votes, even though he had withdrawn prior to the election.

The race for District 3 House Republicans is too close to call. Lori VanWinkle has the most votes, but Roscoe Streyle and Jeff Hoverson are nearly tied.

With only one vote separating him from Streyle, Hoverson said, "I've never had a race this close, except for maybe high school basketball."

Whomever the top two vote getters are will go on the ballot for the general election in November.

In the Ward County Commission race, top vote getters were John Fjeldahl and Alan Walter over Jason Olson and Lance Makeeff. All advance to November's general election.

Voters elected Mitchell Kraft and Sabrina Herrmann to the Minot Public School Board. Andrew Dittus came in with the least amount of votes.

Perry Olson and Mike Schmitt were able to hold onto their seats on the Minot Park Board, but Chuck Emery was not. Voters chose Justin Hammer instead, while Logan Longtin came in fifth for votes.

And Ashley Beall will remain on the bench as Minot Municipal Judge earning more votes than Mark Rasmuson.
