Five trustees have been voted on to the Yukon Francophone School Board following an election in Whitehorse on Nov. 4.
Jocelyne Isabelle, Vincent Larochelle, Jean-Sébastien Blais, Hugo Bergeron and Élaine Michaud were elected to the board. All but Bergeron were incumbents.
Voting took place at École Émilie-Tremblay from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m., with unofficial results released later that night.
Six candidates in total were vying for the five seats. Véronique Maggiore was the only one to not be elected, missing out on a seat by only two votes — she garnered 47 votes, behind Michaud’s 49.
Isabelle was re-elected with 67 votes; Larochelle, 63; Blais, 60; and Bergeron, elected with 58.
Outgoing trustee Gilles Ménard did not seek re-election.
The board will hold its next public meeting on Nov. 7 at its office on 478 Range Rd.
