KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Voters at a polling location in East Knox County had a chance to enjoy sweet treats after casting a ballot. Three young students set up a lemonade stand nearby to take advantage of Super Tuesday elections.

The students set up their stand near Sunnyview Primary School, on Bagwell Street. School was closed on Tuesday so that it could be used as a polling location.

The ballot included presidential primary elections and local primary elections. On the ballot was also the seat for District 8 of the Knox County Board of Education, which covers Carter Elementary School and Sunnyview Primary School. 

The winner of that election will immediately take the seat after the man who previously held that seat, Mike McMillan, died at 74 years old.
