With 80 percent of the vote counted Second Ward Democrat Council candidate Bruce Parry is leading over Independent candidate Walter Jost by a vote of 166 to 89. At 8:30 pm there were only two precincts remaining to be counted in the Second Ward. In the other Wards, John Hutchinson (1st -D)’ and Kelly Ferry (3rd –D) were both unopposed.
The three winners were all newcomers. While Jost was mayor of the City in the 1990’s.
Turnout was extremely light in the City. Out of approximately 5800 voters only 27 percent or 1,585 people took the opportunity to voice their opinion in the polling booth.
