One city councilman proved “every vote counts” Saturday, prevailing in his re-election bid by the slimmest of margins.
District 3 Councilman Quinten Scott turned back a solid challenge from Dan Weis, 108-105, to retain his seat on council.
Scott, 50, held a six-vote margin, 80-74, after early voting was tabulated. His 50.7%-49.3% win was the closest race on the night, and the closest of his career.
District 1 Councilman Ty Wolosin and District 5 Councilman Joseph Macaluso jumped to large advantages and held them to retain their seats as well.
Wolosin outdistanced challenger Jeremy Pratt 257-142, nearly a 30% win (64.4%-35.5%). He led early, 201-100, in the early vote count.
In District 5, Macaluso got out in front of opponent Nick Nuth and stayed there. Macaluso’s victory, 248-118 constitutes a 67.7%-32.3% decision. The incumbent led 192-77 after early voting was tabulated.
