Residents of Ward 1 in the City of Washington cast their ballots to elect a new council representative Tuesday.
The unofficial results from the Washington County Auditor’s Office show Bethany Vittetoe Glinsmann received 118 total votes, and Deran DeLong received 106 total votes. Glinsmann shares her reaction to hearing the results, “I’m really happy that I was successful with the campaign and that I will get to help serve our community in a more official role than some of the volunteer positions I’ve been doing. So I’m really looking forward to learning more as I start as city councilor and getting involved and working on important issues for our community.”
Glinsmann will be representing the northwest quadrant of the city for a term ending in 2023. Results are unofficial until a canvassing next week by the Washington County Board of Supervisors.
