Bob Eby

Oak Ridge Board of Education candidates Bob Eby, Laura McLean, and Paige Marshall lead in early and absentee ballots, according to early Anderson County and Roane County election results posted at 8 p.m. Tuesday.

The Anderson County Election Commission and Roane County Election Commission have not yet posted precinct results from Election Day voting, so the leaders could change.

Eby, the only incumbent, has 2,239 votes, or almost 500 ahead of his closest competitor, McLean, who has 1,771.

Marshall has 1,577.

Eby also leads in early voting in Roane County, with 571 votes. McLean is second in Roane County with 411, and Marshall is third with 373.

There are three open seats on the Oak Ridge Board of Education, and eight candidates.
