Jay Mayor, Council Members Sworn In
October 5, 2010
A mayor elected by just one vote, an incumbent and a political newcomer were sworn into office Monday night in Jay.
In August, Kurvin Qualls was re-elected mayor by a single vote over Ben Hudson. Qualls has served as Jay’s mayor for the past four years, and he had previously served for four years on the town council.
“There are great things going on in Jay, and we are going to keep it going,” Qualls said after his re-election. “There are exciting things about to happen in the near future, and there are great opportunities in front of us.”
Shon O. Owens and Charles “Chubby” Haveard were also sworn in Monday night to the Jay Town Council. Owens is a newcomer to politics in Jay, while Haveard was an incumbent.
