Imperial Beach Mayor Paloma Aguirre became the apparent winner this week in a San Diego County Board of Supervisors run-off election after Chula Vista Mayor John McCann conceded.
Aguirre’s unofficial victory, which is awaiting certification, gives Democrats control of the board.
A special election was held for the District 1 supervisor seat in April when Republican candidate McCann received 43.58% of the vote. Democratic candidate Aguirre received 31.62% of the vote. The other five candidates split the remainder of the vote. With no candidate receiving a majority of the vote, McCann and Aguirre faced each other in a run-off election Tuesday.
Results for the San Diego County supervisor race are unofficial until certified by the San Diego County Registrar of Voters on or before July 16.
