It looks like Tarus Mack will take back his place on the Ocoee City Council with a little more than a one-vote cushion this year. So will fellow incumbent Wanda Randolph.
In City Council races for Seats 4 and 5, both incumbents drew challengers this year.
The more high-profile contest was definitely between former City Council member Tarus Mack and incumbent City Council member Marlin Daniels.
There, Mack won with nearly 56% of the vote to Daniels under 45%, based on, according to unofficial final results from the Orange County Supervisor of Elections with all precincts counted..
That's a very different story from the 2020 election in the city.
This race was a rematch after an election was decided, then overturned, over a single-vote margin of victory for Mack. The tossing of two votes by a court of law forced Mack to give up his seat to Daniels mid-term in 2021, but he set out this year to return to City Hall, and succeeded.
Meanwhile, Randolph faced challenger Crystal Short-Bertrand for the Seat 5 spot on the Council.
Randolph won with just over 52% of the vote, based on early returns and unofficial results. Short-Bertrand received around 48%.
