Holzman, Weed, Asson win council seats

Wendy Holzman, Sharlene Weed and David Asson appear to have secured seats on the Sisters City Council in the November 2 election.

Reports from the Deschutes County Clerk's Office show a total of 1,358 votes cast. Holzman received 295 votes; Weed 269 and Asson 256. The top two vote-getters will serve four-year terms while the Asson serves two years.

Jacki Shepardson secured 216 votes while Jerry Bogart received 168 and Virginia Lindsey received 150.

There were 145 "undervotes", which means that the voter left one or more of the three available votes blank. This may indicated that some voters were unaware that they could vote for three candidates.
