turnout, a total of 653 Co-op members voted, including 604 who voted in 
the store from March 25 to April 4, and 49 who voted by absentee ballot. 
Nearly 3 times as many Co-op members voted as in the previous election.

Meeting on Sunday, April 4.
 
Almost 70% of voters cast their ballot for incumbent, Andrika Kuhle, who 
has been serving on the board since her appointment in July 2009.  Donal 
Wilkinson, who was running for a third term, and Kimberly Vincent, 
currently the Board President, both received nearly 60% of the votes.
