The Douglas County Election Commission counted a record breaking 72,752 votes this primary election. The top two candidates in each category will move on to the general election on May 11.
After weeks of mail-in voting and another election day in Omaha, the city now has a good look at what their general election candidates will look like. Incumbent Mayor Jean Stothert attracted a huge number of voters over her challengers while other races like Omaha City Council District 5 were more hotly contested. The Douglas County Election Commission will officiate these results by April 16, but as of 10:45 p.m. last night, these are the most up-to-date figures on who came out on top in the Omaha city election primaries.
