Former commissioner now a councilman

November 5, 2013
It was a quiet election cycle this year in Boundary County, and it's little surprise to most that the incumbent in the sole challenged race, that for Mayor of Moyie Springs, won by a landslide.

Mayor Doug Evans garnered 50 votes to retain his position in Moyie Springs. His challenger, Rosanne Smith, received just eight.

The only real local election news came in the race for Bonners Ferry City Council, where three vied for two seats.

Former Boundary County Commissioner Ron Smith was the leader with 161 votes to fill the sole empty seat, incumbent Tom Mayo tallied 141 to retain his seat for a second term. Matthew Solt came in with a respectable, but third place finish with 109 votes.

In the Moyie Springs City Council race, with neither position opposed, Stephen Economu took 53 votes, Chad Farrens 44.
