Olympia Snowe has never lost an election during her more than three decades in politics, but she finished a close second in balloting in Auburn to choose a name for the city's newest school.
The winner in Tuesday's voting by nearly 650 students and adult residents of Auburn was Park Avenue Elementary, with 189 votes. Olympia Snowe Elementary was second, with 175. The other choices were Brann's Hill Elementary and Ledgewood Elementary.
The Auburn School Committee is expected to approve the new name for the school that serves 330 pupils from kindergarten through sixth grade.
If only that were the general election...
