WINDSOR – A challenger has filed for the District 1 seat on the Bertie County Board of Education.

On Friday, the last day of filing, Regina B. Harmon of Windsor filled out her Notice of Candidacy, thus officially making the District 1 seat a contested race during the Nov. 5 General Election.

District 1 incumbent Reba Cooper Carlton, also of Windsor, filed June 18 to seek another term on the school board.

Another incumbent, Tarsha Bush Dudley of Republican Road, Windsor, filed June 11 for the school board’s District 5 seat. No other candidate filed for that particular seat.
