No one could predict the outcome of yesterday’s City Council election however the wide margins of victory for Richard Ball (Ward 1) and Leah Johnson (Ward 2) did come as a surprise. Don Overcash overcame Ralph Trenary’s incumbent status and won by 137 votes in Ward 4. Looking at the records of the incumbents and the inclinations of the new Council members, it would appear the business-minded, conservative Council members will retain a 5-4 edge making the 2017 election very significant. Note: LBAR endorsed Overcash, McFall (Ward 1) and Meyers (Ward 2).
