Election Results Emerge Across Local Communities

In Seal Beach, a District One council race may require a runoff because votes for two candidates who withdrew still count toward the majority threshold; incumbent Joe Kalmick appears to have won a Coast Community College District trustee seat and would need to leave the council before a runoff. New Hampshire Democrats won all five Executive Council seats, according to the state party chair, who also noted that two winners are the first councilors of color in state history. Lyon County, Kansas, commissioners certified the 2026 election results, reporting 11,637 ballots cast and 55.82% turnout. In Minnesota communities covered by one report, voters chose mayors and council members, and a tied Foreston council race was resolved by drawing a name, with Jeffrey Ohman winning. Grand Rapids, Minnesota, certified the reelection of Mayor Tasha Connelly and the election of Dale Adams and Tom Sutherland to council seats.
