Background
After the special election for Mableton mayor and city council in March, there were no candidates who received more than 50 percent in the mayoral race, and in districts 2, 3, 4 and 5, so runoffs were scheduled for April 18, 2023.
Two races were settled in the March elections.
In District 6, Debora Herndon ran unopposed after Ricky Dickens dropped out of the race, and in District 1 Ron Davis won 52.36 percent of the vote in a win over DeBorah Johnson.
The runoff candidates, along with the percentage each received in the March elections, are as follows:
In the mayoral race Aaron Carman (35.79 percent) and Michael Owens (30.56 percent).
District 2: Monica Evette DeLancy (38.11 percent) and Dami Oladpo (33.03 percent).
District 3: Keisha Jeffcoat (31.21 percent) and Yashica Marshall (23.81 percent).
District 4: Patricia Auch (45.72 percent) and Cassandra Lynn Brown (20.07 percent).
District 5: TJ Ferguson (41.06 percent) and Cheryl Davis (31.79 percent).
