Nadine McCaw Wins Century Council Seat Two In Tuesday General Election

November 13, 2007

Nadine McCaw won seat number two on the Century City Council Tuesday, defeating write-in candidate Sheryl Jordan by a three to one margin.

McCaw received 294 votes, while Jordan received 101 votes. McCaw defeated James Sutton 348 to 252 in the October 9 city primary.

Also during the October 8 primary, Freddie McCall, Sr. defeated incumbent mayor Evelyn Hammond 355-245. For city council seat one, Ann Brooks defeated 30-year incumbent Marie McMurray 412 votes to 183.

Hammond subsequently filed a complain with Escambia Supervisor of Elections David Stafford alleging that Mayor-elect McCall and McCaw attempted to buy votes with money and watermelons. That complaint was referred to the State Attorney’s office for investigation.

The new council members and mayor will take office in January.
