(KNZA)--A coin flip has determined the new mayor of the Brown County community of Reserve.
Brandon Ruch was declared the winner following the coin flip during Monday’s Brown County Commission meeting.
It was needed to break a tie after a canvass of votes last week from the April 7th election ended with incumbent Janice Sanders and Ruch each receiving 13 votes.
There was also a tie in the race for Morrill mayor, with Daniel Halstead and Roger Price each receiving 8 write-in votes. However, County Clerk Debbie Parker said the two candidates worked it out among themselves and a coin flip wasn’t necessary.
Price accepted the mayor’s position, and Halstead will serve on the City Council. Both men had also been elected to the Council. The Council will have to appoint someone to fill Price’s council position.
