Ezra Nanes appears to be on his way to becoming the next mayor of State College.
Though the election results are not yet final, Nanes has a nearly two-to-one majority over Jim Leous in the Democratic primary election, with 1,568 votes (65.8%) to Leous’s 815 (34.2%). According to the elections office, about 2,000 mail ballots countywide are still to be reported.
Nanes issued a statement on Wednesday night declaring victory.
“I am deeply honored to have the support and confidence of the voters of the Borough of State College,” he said. “… Our community spoke with resounding clarity and unity of purpose to affirm the most fundamental part of our vision that all people be loved, valued and respected for who they are, be protected, have access to representation and to the resources of our community and that every person has the same right of self-determination accorded to each of us.”
This report will be updated as more results become available.
