There was guaranteed to be significant turnover regardless of the results of last Tuesday’s election, but there wasn’t as much as there could have been.

Four county supervisors who have served the last two years opted not to seek reelection and four more were challenged on the spring ballot, meaning there could have been eight new members on the 17-person governing body. However, two of the incumbents won their contests, meaning the final tally will be six new members.
