The Door County Board of Supervisors will get a slightly different look next month as it heads into tumultuous waters. Just days after the board removed Administrator Mike Serpe, three established incumbents — Leroy Liebe, Patrick Olson and Paul DeWitt — lost their bids for re-election. In addition, new supervisors Susan Kohout and Dave Enigl will take over seats that opened when office-holders chose not to run for re-election.
In Liberty Grove, a tie for second place between MaryKay Shumway and Kubie Luchterhand won’t be settled until next week. The town is waiting for seven absentee ballots. If those arrive by Friday and are post-marked by the correct date they will be counted. The board of canvassers meets Monday and if the result is confirmed as a tie the winner will be settled with a coin toss.
Winners are in italics. (I) indicates incumbent candidates.
