With three candidates for three open seats, the results of yesterday’s Clarkston City Council election were never much in doubt.
Nevertheless, many voters went to the polls to elect incumbents Jim Brueck and Cory Johnston and newcomer Peg Roth to two-year terms.
Brueck came out on top with 118 votes. Johnston pulled in 97 votes, while newcomer Peggy Roth received 94.
Dan Colombo, who served 10 years on the council, announced in September he would not seek reelection.
City Manager Art Pappas provided vote totals after the polls closed, and said 134 residents turned out to cast a ballot.
The city also received more than 50 absentee ballots leading up to the election.
“It wasn’t a bad turn out for a council election,” said Pappas. “Especially when it’s unopposed.”
Brueck and Johnston are both entering second terms on council.
