Democrats sweep Tucson City Council election (unofficial results)

Posted by AzBlueMeanie:

Thanks to Carolyn Classen for City’s General Election final results: Scott retains Ward 4 Council seat:

On General Election night, the vote difference between 4-term Ward 4 Democratic Councilmember Shirley Scott and her Republican challenger political newcomer Tyler Vogt was 1754. . . Scott’s lead increased to 1862 on the final count.

The final count was released today:

Ward 4
Shirley Scott (D, incumbent) 42,029 (50.99%)
Tyler Vogt (R), 40,167 (48.73%)

Mayor of Tucson
Mary DeCamp (G), 4197 (4.94%)
Rick Grinnell (R), 33,926 (39.91%)
*Jonathan Rothschild (D), 46,723 (54.96%)

Ward 1
Beryl Baker (G) 24,976 (34.04%)
*Regina Romero (D, incumbent), 47,451 (64.67%)

Ward 2
*Paul Cunningham (D, incumbent) 47,366 (56.89%)
Jennifer Rawson (R), 35,727 (42.91%)

Voter turnout was only 31.07 %. It had been projected to be over 40%.

So will Tyler Vogt offer a gracious concession speech and show "impeccable manners in the thank-you note department" by sending Shirley Scott "a lovely handwritten note" of congratulations?

I am still waiting for the Phisher King to spam me with the obligatory "thank you for your support" e-mail blast.
