Kasim Reed is the new mayor of Atlanta! Although a recount is in the offing, the former state senator is already preparing his transition team to tackle the major issues the city faces. First on his agenda: Finding a new police chief.
Here are the election results from last night:
Candidate Votes %
Kasim Reed 41,901 51%
Mary Norwood 41,143 49%
100% reporting (170 of 170 precincts)
Congratulations to mayor-elect Reed, as well as councilwoman Norwood. She ran a fine campaign, and distinguished herself as a leader. Her love of this city is unrivaled in my eyes.
UPDATE: Councilwoman Norwood has not officially conceded.
UPDATE II: We have an official recount!
