Karl Tomion

The St. Clair County Commissioners incumbents held on to their seats in yesterday’s election, with new comer Karl Tomion joining them in the 2^nd District.  Neither Tomion nor his opponent Cheryl Kearns-Stein had political experience when joining the race.  Kearns-Stein is a teacher and Tomion is a former city manager of Port Huron.  The race that had many residents watching carefully was the contest between Mike West and John Adair for the 31^st District Circuit Court Judge seat.  It was extremely close until the wee hours of the morning when West took the lead by just under 1000 votes.
