(KNZA)--A new Brown County Clerk has been selected.
The Brown County Republican Precinct Committee Friday evening during a convention at the Fairview Community Center selected Nicole Lee to fill the unexpired term of former County Clerk Dawn Boyles, who resigned July 17.
Lee currently serves as payroll clerk in the County Clerk's Office.
Brown County Republican Committee Chairman Chris Kroll told MSC News that Lee was selected from among two candidates on a 14 to 11 vote. The other candidate was Kedrin Pyle.
Lee's name will now be forwarded to Governor Kelly for appointment to a term ending in January 2025. The position is up for election in November 2024.
Barb Grabhorn has been serving as interim county clerk since the resignation of Boyles.
