WVIK, Quad Cities NPR | By Herb Trix

Published April 7, 2015 at 9:54 PM CDT

Residents of the Moline School District rejected two incumbent members of their school board, and instead elected four newcomers.
Incumbents Dawn Ratzburg and Cecilia O'Brien trailed the four winners by at least 200 votes, losing to Justin Anderson, Tim Miller, Susan Tucker, and Kate Schaefer.

For the Rock Island school board, two incumbents will keep their seats - Linda Dothard and Tiffany Stoner-Harris. And also winning a seat is Kevin Nolan.
The 4th and losing candidate was Leslie Thomas.
