District 5 runoff election results Here's who will be joining the Macon Board of Commissioners

MACON, Ga. — Voters from District 5 in Macon headed to the polls Tuesday to decide the runoff race for the Commissioner runoff election.

The seat opened up earlier this year, after District 5 Commissioner Seth Clark stepped down to explore a run as a Democratic candidate for Lt. Governor. Clark later dropped out of that race before official qualifying began.

Andrea Cooke and Edward Foster were the two candidates up for election, having received the most votes in March's special election.

In that March election, Cooke received 523 votes, good for 49.53% of the vote. If Cooke had received another 10 votes in that election, she would have won outright. Meanwhile, Foster received 205 votes, 19.4% of the vote.
