Military ballot or drawing will break election tie for council seat in Pa. city
WILLIAMSPORT — One outstanding military vote could determine if the vice president of Williamsport City Council will serve a second four-year term.
Republican incumbent Eric Beiter and political newcomer April Line, a Democrat, are currently tied with 2,415 votes.
Four Lycoming County residents in the military, only one of whom lives in the city, have not returned their ballots, Forrest Lehman, county elections director, said.
The deadline for receipt of military ballots is Wednesday because of the Veterans Day holiday, he said.
