Perennial Candidate Wins St. George City Council Seat

We have updates on close results from Southern Utah elections earlier this month.

Perennial candidate Ed Baca won a seat on the St. George city council at the sixth time asking. He joins incumbents Jimmie Hughes and Bette Arial in winning seats to the council, according to the St. George Spectrum.

In Brian Head, you might remember a race where preliminary results showed a candidate winning election by one vote … that result held, and David Bourne won a seat to the Brian Head city council by one vote over incumbent councilman Jim Ortler.

Casey Morell is the coordinating producer of Nevada Public Radio's flagship broadcast State of Nevada and one of the station's midday newscast announcers. (He's also been interviewed by Jimmy Fallon, whatever that's worth.)
