Race to fill vacant Flint City Council seat in limbo as write-ins garner most votes
At this point, there is no winner in Tuesday’s election to fill Flint’s third ward City Council seat. The seat has been vacant since last September.
Of the ballots cast in Tuesday’s election, 44% were for write-in candidates — easily more votes than for either of the two candidates, Beverly Biggs-Leavy and AC Dumas, whose names were on the ballot.
But it’s unclear if any of the write-in candidates has enough votes to win.
The Genesee County Board of Canvassers will begin the process of reviewing the write-in ballots Wednesday to certify the names written in. it’s a process that may take until next week to complete.
