Voters in Ferriday will elect a mayor while voters in Vidalia will elect a police chief in the only elections on tap in Concordia Parish on Saturday.
Early voting ended Saturday with 312 votes counted. Mail-in ballots totaled 82 by Monday.
The mayor's race in Ferriday is a rematch between Mayor Gene Allen and former Mayor Glen McGlothin. Allen unseated McGlothin four years ago.
Police Chief Billy Hammers faces Ronnie G. "Tapper" Hendricks in a run-off in Vidalia. One vote separated Hammers and Hendricks in the primary.
Hammers received 761 votes and Hendricks 760. Each garnered 43 percent of the vote.
Ricky Williams finished in third place with 150 votes (8%), while C.A. "Sam" King finished fourth with 104 votes (6%).
In the February 9th mayoral primary in Ferriday, McGlothin led the seven-candidate field with 598 votes (48%), while Allen received 410 (33%). Other contenders included Justin Conner, 125 (10%); alderman Glenn Henderson, 64 (5%); Alex Promise, 32 (3%); Wanda Ann Baker Smith, 19 (2%); and Evelyn L. Parker, 9 (1%).
In the primary race in March 2004, McGlothin received 644 votes, followed by Allen with 471. But Allen recorded a 71-vote victory in the April 2004 run-off, winning with 886 votes to 815 for McGlothin. |
