The Results Show
Here’s a quick look at the winners in the county races yesterday. Please note that in some of these races, candidates ran unopposed so they were not even on the ballot and will face yesterday’s winner in the general election this fall. I don’t have those results posted yet, but I’ll be working on it!

There were also some constable races in the county, and it looks like the winners were Larry Adams, Steve Pelfrey, and Charles Tharp.
