It's Election Day in Bay County: Get out and vote between 7 a.m. and 8 p.m. on variety of political races and tax questions

It's election day and today's ballots in Bay County feature a variety of political races and tax questions. Polls are open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. Among the highlights are mayoral races in Bay City, Auburn and Pinconning; millage questions in Bay City, Essexville, Beaver Township and the Bay-Arenac Intermediate School District; and commission races in Bay City, Auburn, Essexville and Pinconning. In Pinconning, Stanley Brandenburg and Barbara Cadwell are seeking seats on the City Council. John R. Clark's name also appears on the ballot, but Clark asks residents not to vote for him because he withdrew from the race, but not in time for his name to be removed from the ballot. In Auburn, voters decide on a charter revision proposal to help determine which direction the city goes with police services. If passed, a nine-member Charter Commission — for which nine Auburn residents are running unopposed on the ballot — will be formed to re-write the charter.
