The ballots have been counted! We have two new city councilmen. Rob Ronayne took the northeast districts and Alan Johnson won by a substantial margin in the southwest. Each beat out one other contender in his district on the June 4 election. Hats off to exiting councilmen Tom Agnitsch and Jeff Mitchell. Thanks for your service to Aberdeen, gentlemen! The swearing-in ceremony for both Ronayne and Johnson is in early July. These council races were the only items on the ballot which is probably why only 18.2% in the northeastern precincts voted and only 8.4% voted in the southwest. These two fine men will no doubt keep things rolling for the Hub City. //
