In Ward 5, Democrat Jeremiah Dumas collected 352 votes to Republican Mike Allen’s 227. Dumas said he was glad the election was over. “I’m looking forward to tomorrow,” he said. “It was great to run against Mike and Scott; both of them are class acts.” Allen said he ran a clean campaign and did what he needed to do. “You probably haven’t seen the end of me either,” Allen said, adding that he liked to be constructively involved in city affairs.
