Bobo looks to be moving on in West Point mayor’s race
Rod Bobo
WEST POINT — As the decisive absentee ballot counting stretched into the early morning hours Wednesday, Rod Bobo debated whether to leave the West Point Civic Center and find out the results later in the day.
“It was grueling, just waiting and waiting,” Bobo said. “But I stuck around. I wouldn’t have been able to sleep anyway.”
Finally, at about 1;30 a.m., Bobo got the news he had been waiting for.
Bobo held a 90-vote advantage over his main competition, Cole Bryan — 1,593 to 1,503 — for the Democratic Party nominee for West Point mayor heading into the June 8 general election against Homer Ryland Jr. (Independent) and Jennifer Harper (Constitution). A third candidate in Tuesday’s Democratic Primary, Tammy Parkerson, didn’t factor into the outcome directly, but the 68 votes she received may yet cast the primary race into a runoff.
