Thirty municipal positions that were up for grabs in the 2015 General Election were won by write-ins after the official computation of the votes and certification by the Carbon County Board of Elections.

The board consists of Lee Becker, chairman; Wallace Putkowski; and Frank Jacobs Jr. They were appointed to the board by President Judge Roger N. Nanovic of the Carbon County Court of Common Pleas due to the fact that the three sitting commissioners - Wayne E. Nothstein, Tom J. Gerhard and William J.
