Central Rural Electric Cooperative district six trustee James Wells retained his seat and will serve an additional three-year term on the board of trustees.

Wells, the incumbent for district six, did not face an opponent. According to the bylaws, the trustee holding office from that district shall retain their seat in office for an additional three-year term provided he/she otherwise qualifies. Therefore, there will not be a district election on September 15.
