LOGAN – Following the tabulation of some 8,700 countywide ballots not counted on Nov. 4, the Cache County Clerk’s office has updated its unofficial results from the Logan municipal election.
City council member and local businessman Mark Anderson’s lead over challenger Alanna Hafziger narrowed somewhat, but not enough to change the outcome of the mayoral race in Logan.
After the update, Anderson captured 59 percent (4,247 votes) of the mail-in ballots cast in the Logan election, compared to 41 percent for Nafziger, whose count rose by nearly 1,000 votes to 2,937.
The percentage of votes also remained largely unchanged in the city council races in Logan, where incumbent council member Ernesto Lopez, Brian Seamons, Katie-Lee Koven and Melissa Dahle were competing for two seats on the municipal council.
Lopez and Lee-Koven emerged as the victors in that contest, with Lopez garnering about 30 percent of the ballots cast and Lee-Koven winning 27 percent.
After the update, Dahle received 26 percent of the ballots cast and Seamons won 17 percent.
The revised voter turnout in the countywide municipal elections was 39 percent, with 23,616 of the Cache County’s more than 60,000 registered voters returning their mail-in ballots.
