Dressler Ousted in Primary by Spletzer
Montgomery County's unofficial results were posted after polls closed on Tuesday.
Low voter turnout seemed to be common in the Spring-Ford area on Tuesday. Only 9 percent of registered voters turned out county-wide.
However, even with the low turnout, there was at least one surprise in the race for school board seats.
