Bender to be next District 4 commissioner

From the Escambia County Supervisor of Elections:

Write-in candidate Leigh Anne Bell has withdrawn as a candidate for the office of Board of County Commissioners, District 4, resulting in an unopposed candidate race. Although it is too late to remove the contest from the November 6 General Election ballot itself due to the lateness of the withdrawal, a vote cast in the race will not change the outcome as the remaining candidate is deemed by law to be elected. Any votes cast in this contest will not be reported or published.

The withdrawal makes Robert Bender the next commissioner for District 4.
