Snellville election results

  • Tom Witts has unseated Robert Jenkins
  • Mike Sabbagh has defeated Jackie O. Ginn
  • Barbara Bender wins re-election over Niria Dominguez Baggett

From AJC's Election: Minute by Minute:

7:51 am: A report from Snellville City Hall: By 7:30 a.m. about 40 people had voted. Poll manager Nelson Williams said he expected it to pick up as the day went on.

9:10 pm : Snellville voters elected businessman Tom Witts, accountant Barbara Bender and electronics engineer Mike Sabbagh to the city council. Incumbent Robert Jenkins was ousted from Post 3 by Witts in the most lopsided of the three races. Bender defeated attorney Niria Baggett by just six votes to retain her Post 4 seat. Baggett told Bender she planned to challenge the results.

By the time I arrived at Snellville City Hall (about 9:50 am), the parking lot was probably about 75% full. I was really glad to see all the interest in the election.
