(KMZA)--A five-way tie has been broken for a seat on the Seneca City Council.
The name of write-in Kerry Bramhall was drawn from a hat at Monday's Nemaha County Commission meeting to fill the 1st Ward Council seat currently held by Bruce Hermesh, who didn't file for re-election.
That came after Commissioners canvassed ballots from the November 7th election.
Bramhall was among five write-in candidates to receive votes, and will be contacted to see if he will accept the position. If not, the Council will have to appoint someone.
Mayor Joe Mitchell, Ward 2 Council member Alice Lackey, Ward 3 council member Jim Mitchell and City Treasurer Kathy O'Brien all won re-election. The four ran unopposed.
