By MATT PIKE St. Joseph Post With a number of local issues that will impact the community, officials are expecting a low voter turnout for today's election. Buchanan County Clerk Mary Baack Garvey says it's surprising to her how quiet voters have been in this election thus far. "Our absentees, the people that came into the counter, we barely broke 100 people," Baack Garvey tells KFEQ/St. Joseph Post. "So, I'm going to predict about an 11% turnout for today for all around Buchanan County." In Buchanan County, voters will choose two new St. Joseph School Board members, whether recreational marijuana sales will be taxed, and whether to extend the quarter-cent sales tax for the Buchanan County EMS ambulance service. The school board race is crowded with nine candidates on the ballot for two open positions. St. Joseph School District voters will choose among these candidates: Whitney Lanning, Brian Shewell, Jonathon Bell, Harold B. Barr Jr., Bradly G. Hu
