SARANAC — Samantha Cross won Saranac Central School's special election Wednesday to fill an open seat on the School Board.

She won the seat with 67 votes.

Martha Nist Dickie received 45 votes, and David DuPree received 21 votes.

The special election was needed because of a hitch with the May vote. Candidates in the district have to run for a specific seat and are not elected "at large."

Two seats were open this year, but all the candidates opted to run for the same seat. Robert Brooks was elected to that post.

The other seat was left with no candidates.

Residents submitted 14 write-in votes on Election Day, but all were for separate candidates, so the special election was scheduled.

Cross, Dickie and Dupree were the candidates who stepped forward.

Cross will serve the remainder of the unexpired term and take office immediately.

Cross, 42, is an account executive. She is a volunteer with the Family School Organization and past president of the Saranac Schools PALS program.
