Ada Linenbroker wins Seward County Commission seat, 270-116 over incumbent Joyce Hibler (70 percent to 30 percent). "I am excited to win, I am looking forward to working," Linenbroker said. "I hope to do a lot of new things and hope to get a lot of new things started for the county. I have a lot of ideas regarding things I want to do to the fair. I want to try and get it back to being a community event again. Maybe do some things toward the elderly and a lot of things with economic development and maybe getting some more stuff going on in the county. It was a good race, I appreciate what Joyce has done in the past. I am hoping to step in with new commissioners and see what we can get done."
Doug LeFreniere also won his race for Seward County Commissioner 518-370 over incumbent Toby Hale (58 percent to 42 percent). After sitting out two years from serving on the Liberal City COmmission, LaFreniere made the rare move to the Seward County Commission, something that has not been done since Don Rash was elected to the Liberal City Commission in 2006 after a long break from serving on the Seward County Commission in the 1980s.
