The winning Mishawaka councilman still wants to challenge whether or not some voters should have been able to vote in his district.
Democratic incumbent Ron Banicki says a number of Bethel College students should not be able to vote in the 6th district, because they live in the 5th District.
He wants students to vote with provisional ballots until they can prove they live in his district.
“We are not necessarily challenging students from Bethel College but anybody that lives in the wrong district faculty staff commuter students that live in the different districts,” says 6th District Incumbent Ron Banicki.
Banicki's challenger was a Bethel College professor.
The election board also says workers were reprimanded today after students were harassed and intimidated while trying to vote in the district.
