Well, I think I'll start with Ward 4 since that is where I live. Michelle Distler, a true independent thinker, literally blew away her challenger Loretta Barngrover 521 to 281 (64.96% to 35.04%).
In Ward 3 it was Jeff Vaught 467 over Dennis Kissinger 404 (52.89% to 45.75%).
Ward 2 has challenger David Morris at 474 victorious over Shawnee's local elder statesman Frank Goode at 323 (59.25% to 40.38%).
And, in Ward 1 Dan Pflumm will return to the council defeating Jim Neighbor 735 to 645 (53.11% to 46.60%).
The new council will choose the council president at their first meeting. Personally, I think after holding that position for two years that it is time for Dawn Kuhn to not be given a third year. Naturally, considering the confidence that her constituents have placed in her, I firmly believe that Michelle Distler would make an excellent council president.
