Elmbrook school board election recount

Quinn Clark:

After he lost the Elmbrook School Board election by 0.3%, Gregg Eberhardt on Wednesday sought a recount, citing “potential irregularities or illegalities,” in his recount petition.

The Board of Canvassers of the School District of Elmbrook, the same people who counted the first time, will recount the votes Friday, April 14 at 9 a.m. at the district office at 3555 North Calhoun Road, Brookfield. The recount is open to the public, but can also be streamed live at www.elmbrookschools.org/live.

Eberhardt ran against Dr. Preetha Kurudiyara for the Area 3 seat. In the end, Kurudiyara garnered 9,847 votes (50.1%) to Eberhardt’s 9,799 (49.8%).
