POLLS CLOSED: Voting has ended in the special election of the Jacksonville City Council to replace the seat left vacant by the late Tommy Hazouri.
The election went to a runoff in December, when none of the four candidates were able to get more than 50% of the vote. The top two vote-getters — Republican Nick Howland and Democrat Tracye Polson — advanced. There was early indicationAfter the vast majority of the votes were counted in the first 30 minutes, Howland appeared to have a clear advantage in the race.The big factor has been expected to be independent voters.
Howland was at the Republican headquarters Monday morning, working on getting the vote out. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis was helping him with robocalls. “It’s been a thrill. It’s been six months, and there’s just one day left. We’re looking forward to tomorrow and seeing a great result,” Howland said.
