In Unofficial Results, Patrick Mara Takes Georgetown
Low voter turn out across the city leaves the race close in the early hours after polls have closed.
In a special election marked by low voter turnout, Georgetown was no exception, despite a slight increase in voters in the evening. Unofficial results show Patrick Mara taking the day in Georgetown with Sekou Biddle next, followed by Bryan Weaver. Early voting, absentee and other special ballots will still need to be counted.
Precinct 5, which voted at the Neighborhood Library, had a total of 291 voters today for 7.3 percent of registered voters. Precinct 6, had 341 voters come out, making up a mere 6.1 percent of those registered to vote at the Duke Ellington School.

Judy, this year the Christ Church Precinct (Precinct 5) moved to the Neighborhood Library because of a scheduling conflict with the church. So the results are there!
