After 2020 Census, the Pensacola City Council redrew the district boundaries. Escambia County Supervisor of Elections Robert Bender pointed out the most significant change was moving the St. John Divine Precinct 90 out of District 6 and into District 5. Malcolm Yonge Precinct 50 was replaced with Bayview Precinct 40.
The changes increased White voters from 3.855 to 4,861 – a 1,006-vote increase that raised the percentage of White voters from 58% to 78%. The Black voters dropped from 2,369 (35%) to only 908 (15%).

ELECTION IMPACT
The shift in demographics led to incumbent District 6 Council member Ann Hill losing her seat to newcomer Allison Patton. Patton won by 325 votes, with the increase in downtown voters at the City Hall Precinct #15 and the influx of White voters at Bayview Precinct 40. Those two precincts gave her 417 more votes than Hill, where the White voters comprise 91% of the registered voters.
The only precinct with a Black majority, Mt. Olive Baptist, gave Hill 410 votes to Patton’s 277.
