Opelika native Mallory Hagan soundly defeated opponent Dr. Adia Winfrey in the race for the U.S. 3rd Congressional District Seat in the Lee County primaries last night.
Jeremy Gray and Todd Rauch made their names known in their respective races with solid results for both of them.
Richard LaGrand also placed well in his race for the Lee County Commission District 5 seat. However, none of the three candidates garnered enough votes to win outright. All three of these candidates will face a run-off on July 17.
Gray, a Democratic candidate in House District 83, received enough votes to surge ahead of Patsy Jones in Lee County but not enough in Russell County for the victory. Gray and Jones will face each other in the run-off next month.
Rauch was one of three Republican candidates vying to become the next state representative for Alabama’s 38th District. He earned 51.14 percent of the vote in Lee County to top Bryan Murphy and Debbie Wood but will face Wood in the run-off.
LaGrand developed an easy lead in the Lee County Commission’s District 5 race, coming in ahead of Kami Billingslea, Elizabeth Burton and Bishop A.L. Dowdell with 43.39 percent of the total vote but he and Dowdell will go head-to-head in the run-off.
At press time gubernatorial Democratic candidate Walt Maddox recieved the nomination and will face incumbent Republican Kay Ivey in the general election in November.
