Here are the unofficial results from the March primary. I just returned from El Salvador the night before and worked the Democratic Table at Kings Mill precinct. Lots of folks seemed glad they waited until election day to vote. I don't think the " save our orange county schools" campaign was not fair but it seemed to have worked against the incumbent commissioners. Looks like locally older white men (like me) didn't do so well. Younger ones like Hathaway won. On the national level.... Back in El Salvador they are talking about their mayor and national assembly elections in 2021. Many commented to me that their new president is more crazy than Trump. He sent the armed military into their Legislative building to encourage representative to vote for a security (military) bill.

So the final recount for Town Council ended up with the same tally of 25 votes. And on a different note did anyone attend any of the local impeachment protests?
Currently Ranuko Soll is last with 3861, Susan Hunter with 3909, Nancy Oates with 3922 and current council elect Tai Huynh with 3946 votes according to WCHL with all precincts reporting (but not late mailed absentee ballots nor provisional votes.) Note there is less than a hundred votes among them. Jessica Anderson, Amy Ryan and Michael Parker came in 1st, 2nd and 3rd. These are the numbers from Orange and Durham Board of Elections. Remember Chapel Hill is in both counties.
