Bradberry Wins Johns Creek City Council Seat

JOHNS CREEK, GA -- The contentious, hard-fought battle between two Johns Creek City Council candidates has come to an end.

Preliminary results for the Dec. 5 runoff election show candidate John Bradberry has defeated fellow challenger Vicki Horton for the Post 3 held by incumbent Cori Davenport.

According to unofficial results posted by the Georgia Secretary of State's Office, Bradberry received 58 percent, or 2,151 votes, compared to Horton's 42 percent, or 1,573 votes.

Bradberry will succeed Davenport, who chose not to run for re-election. The office of mayor and the Post 1 and Post 3 seats on the City Council were decided in the Nov. 7 general municipal election. Lenny Zaprowski was re-elected to the Post 1 seat while Stephanie Endres won another four-year term for the Post 5 seat, respectively.

Mayor Mike Bodker initially faced challenger Alex Marchetti for re-election, but the challenger opted to drop out of the race, leaving Bodker unopposed for another four-year term.

Other Johns Creek City Council races were decided in the Nov. 7 special election. Incumbent Lenny Zaprowski was elected to the Post 1 seat, as was Post 5 incumbent Stephanie Endres.

The Fulton County Board of Elections will meet later this week to certify the Dec. 5 results.
