Serving Clovis, Portales and the Surrounding Communities

No additions to local races made on filing day

CLOVIS — Tuesday’s filing day for write-in candidates for the Nov. 5 general election came and went, with no additions to any of the local races for various education and conservation boards.

Officials with the Curry, Roosevelt, Quay and Chaves county clerks offices confirmed nobody signed up for any write-in position on local boards. Tuesday was the lone day to sign up as a write-in, following the regular filing date of Aug. 27.

In cases where a board served multiple counties, candidates were required to sign up in the county where they were registered to vote. There were four such boards — the Border Soil and Water Conservation District (Roosevelt and Chaves), Grady school board (Curry and Quay), Melrose school board (Curry, Roosevelt and Quay) and Texico school board (Curry and Roosevelt).

There were no signups, filing day or write-in, for four spots — the District 5 Supervisor at Large position for the Border Soil and Conservation District and three positions on the House school board.

Tuesday was also the deadline to withdraw from any race. Jason Queener was the lone candidate to do so, pulling out of the Position 1 race for the Texico school board. The withdrawal leaves three running for the position. All three positions on the Texico board up for election will be contested.
