Genesee County saw a couple of very tight races tonight.

Republican Michael Davis beat out Democrat Lawrence Stabell for the open seat on the Darien Town Board by a margin of 68 votes (677 to 609)—a third candidate, Conservative Richard Wurl, picked up 43 votes.

The race was even closer in Le Roy, but Democrat Thomas Stella held onto his seat on the Town Board. He beat out Republican Robert Taylor Jr. by a margin of 62 votes (1,468 to 1,406).

Republicans Donald Coleman and Robert Youngfleisch retained their positions as Genesee County coroners, beating out newcomer Nicole Brady, who ran on the Conservative line. Coleman and Youngfleisch pulled 11,016 and 12,014 votes, respectively. Brady received 4,389 votes.

Not too shabby for an “unknown” on Row D against two incumbent Republicans! :-)

Thank you to everyone who helped my campaign and supported me. Bob and Don gave me a good run for my money, and I hope to run again next year.

Have a great day!
Nicole Brady

I am too!
My sister, the late Marilyn Geandreau, ran for city council on the Conservative ticket a few years ago. Sadly, after she was put on the ballot, she was diagnosed with cancer and asked that she be removed. It was too late to remove her from the ballot.
Voting for Nicole brought back memories of having to search WAY down the list for my sister's name.
I know Nicole has a bright future ahead of her.
Good luck next year.

Not too shabby indeed. You Go Girl. Next year and the right "ticket" will double your votes. I hope you dont get discouraged and leave the area. You keep your name out there and people will wise up.
