Mayor Lenny Curry

Incumbent Mayor Lenny Curry easily fought off challengers, including outgoing Councilwoman Anna Brosche, in Tuesday’s election. 

Sheriff Mike Williams won a second term, as well. However, there will also be a few runoff contests in May. We discussed the results in more detail with David Bauerlein of The Florida Times-Union.
