There will also be some certain change to the make-up of the highest city-level and county-level bodies. At least three Brown County Board seats and two seats on the Green Bay City Council will have newcomers after April as the incumbents in those races didn’t run.

Green Bay saw a roughly typical turnout compared to previous spring primaries in the city, though several polling places needed ballots to be replenished, according to Green Bay City Clerk Celestine Jeffreys.

Here are the unofficial results of the primary. All seats are two-year terms. The top two vote-getters advance to the April 7 election.
