Drys carry election in Jamestown today, 277-252

Wet faction now turns to petition for county wide legalization in Russell County

By Larry Smith, 92.7 The WAVE

It was a narrow defeat. The margin was only 25 votes, but the drys won the special election today, Tuesday, July 23, 2013 to allow alcoholic beverages with meals in Jamestown by a vote of 277-252.
YES - 252 Votes: Lake Precinct - 102; Jamestown City Precinct - 131; and Absentee -19
NO - 277 Votes: Lake Precinct 120; Jamestown City Precinct, 140; Absentee, 17
The Yes effort carried only the absentee, and the measure failed. However, a petition is now being circulated to make the entire county wet. The WAVE is following that story closely. - LARRY SMITH, 92.7 FM the WAVE radio.
