Helland ousts Bates

Callahan, board Republicans also find success at polls

At the county level, Republicans had a very successful night Tuesday in their pursuit of elected office.

The state's attorney and coroner posts, along with a majority of Grundy County Board positions, went to Republicans, who celebrated their wins at the Fraternal Order of Eagles Hall in downtown Morris on election night.

"I can't wait to be on the job and I can't wait to work with local law enforcement," said Jason Helland, newly-elected Grundy County State's Attorney, to the crowd at the Eagles hall.
