Hutchinson voters saw contested races for two city council seats, three school board seats, county attorney and others on the ballot.
Meanwhile, there were contested races for state House District 17A and Senate District 17 to be considered, in addition to the full slate of constitutional offices, from governor to auditor. Voters also were confronted with a choice in U.S. House District 7, as well as some judicial seats.
