The battle for the five seats on the Morrisville school board is still on.
Incumbents who ran under the "Stay on Course" slogan, unofficially won the Republican ticket during Tuesday's primary election. Newcomers, who ran under the "Morrisville Matters" slogan, unofficially took the Democratic ballot.
The results ensure the two sides will clash in the November general election.
All nine candidates cross filed for the four-year seats, meaning they were on both the Democrat and Republican tickets.
Incumbent Stephen Worob will be the only winner to appear on both the GOP and Democratic ballot in November.
The newspaper was
unsuccessful in reaching
"Stay on Course" candidates for comment late Tuesday. They were expected to meet at a supporter's home after polls closed but most didn't show up and those who did left soon after, their campaign manager said.
The "Stay on Course" team includes board President Bill Hellmann, Marlys Mihok, Alfred Radosti, Yvonne Ruthrauff and Worob.
The other team of four - "Morrisville Matters" - consists of Wanda Kartal, Damon Miller, Ted Parker and David Stoneburner. After the polls closed, they met supporters at Dacey's Pub.
One two-year board seat was up
in which newcomer Alina Marone ran unopposed; she ran aligned with the "Stay on Course" group.
Miller, who is a former unsuccessful candidate for the school board, expected the results to be a split. Kartal said the group will take a few of days off and when they regroup they will strategize for the November election.
Parker said the hardest part of the campaign was dispelling rumors that the "Morrisville Matters" group is in favor of building a new school and increasing taxes.

Yay!
Remind me again, New School-Wise, who ran on the "Sandy Gibson Ticket" who's now up for re-election?
Oh, that's right, Al Radosti.
Where was the Sandy Gibson Ticket victory party held?
Oh, that's right, Steve Worob's house.
Who got on the furniture and declared himself "King of Morrisville" at this victory party?
Oh, that's right, Steve Worob.
Who else was there?
Oh, that's right, Marlys Mihok for sure, Bill Hellmann, CPA maybe - anybody know for sure? I wasn't there - I voted for exactly ZERO of them.
The New School is DEAD.
Stop the School-Stay on Track-Stay on Course needs to, but won't, take responsibility for its prominent role in STARTING the School.
Their actions over many years, or lack thereof when it came to addressing the deteriorating building conditions, got us well into this expensive mess.
