Voting machine issues impact two school board races
Two school board races are in doubt as voting-machine issues caused the possibility of voting for a candidate twice.

Races for school board in the West York Area School District and Central York School District were ones in which the voting-machine issue would throw results in doubt because there were more candidates than open seats.
Although other board-race candidates in other districts might have crossfiled, the races were uncontested, likely keeping winners the same barring a write-in victory.
So far, unofficial results show a loss for current Central York school board member Marie Damiano as well as area resident John Schriver.

At West York, candidate Joyce Vandersloot failed to gather enough votes for one of the four seats up in that school district’s board.
Reached by phone Wednesday afternoon, Vandersloot accepted the results as-is, adding that she had hoped a victory would bring representation of West York borough parents to the board.
People that live in the borough have different issues than residents in West Manchester Township, where all board members currently reside, she said.
"These are wealthier areas where parents are more able to handle difficulties with their kids," Vandersloot, a West York board member from 1987 through 1998, said.
"In the borough, there are many single families that rely on after-school programs and don't have as much support to handle issues with their children," and she had hoped to be that voice, she stated.
However, Vandersloot said she lost and easily accepted the fact.
"They beat me," she said.
Damiano and Schriver were unable to be reached for comment on Wednesday, Nov. 8.
A request for comment from Central York school board president Eric Wolfgang was not returned by a district spokeswoman.
