Vienna Election Results: 5 Town Council Candidates And Write-Ins Lead, Mayor Unopposed

Updated at 10:20 p.m.

VIENNA, VA — Town of Vienna voters cast their ballots in the general election for candidates running for Vienna mayor and Town Council on Tuesday. Early vote tallies show five Town Council candidates are leading as well as write-in votes. Mayor Linda Colbert is unopposed in the mayoral race. (See real-time election results at the bottom of this story.)

All Vienna Town Council seats, including mayor and six Town Council members, were on the ballot. Incumbents running for re-election are Charles "Chuck" Anderson, Ray Brill and Howard Springsteen. Newcomers seeking a seat are Jessica Ramakis, Roy Baldwin, Sandra Allen and Shelley Mount Joy. Elizabeth Korondy dropped out of the race for Town Council, and Beth Eachus has a write-in campaign, according to the Gazette Leader.

With one of four precincts reporting, the six leading Town Council candidates are Howard Springsteen (15.77 percent) Jessica Ramakis (15.40 percent), Chuck Anderson (15.33 percent), Ray Brill (13.15 percent), Roy Baldwin (12.98 percent) and write-in (9.57 percent). It is unclear from early results how much support Eachus received from the write-in votes.

In the mayoral race, incumbent Colbert is unopposed. Colbert has 94.50 percent of votes with one of four precincts reporting.

Town Council elections used to happen in May, but that changed under a new Virginia election law. Vienna Town Council sets policies for the Town of Vienna, including the town's annual budget. The new Council will take effect after a major zoning code update has already been completed. Some issues, such as parking, still need to be addressed in the zoning code update.

Other Fairfax County races include Board of Supervisors district and chairman races, School Board at-large and district races, Commonwealth's Attorney, Sheriff, Northern Virginia Soil and Water Conservation District, Virginia Senate and Virginia House.

Unofficial election results will start to come in on the Virginia Department of Elections website after polls closed at 7 p.m. on Tuesday.
