Incumbent Joe Bryan defeats challenger Fred Puryear in Tuesday’s primary election for Wake County Commission District 1.
Only one race for the County Commission is in the May primary, but November could test the balance of power at the Wake County Commissioner table.
Wake County Commissioners have hired Jim Hartmann to fill the position once held by County Manager David Cooke.
From the editor: Raleigh City Councilors are working this month to pass a rewrite of the city zoning that’s been in the works for three years. The Wake County Board of Education is looking for a new member to replace Deborah Goldman, but there’s also the issue of hiring a new superintendent.
No matter how this year’s elections shake out, Republicans will maintain the majority on Wake’s County Commission. But if Dems hope to retake the majority any time soon, they’ll need to win all three seats this year.
