By: John Munford
Peachtree City voters, your job is not done yet. Candidates in three races failed to win 50 percent of the vote, there will be a runoff election Tuesday, Dec. 1. The runoff for mayor includes current councilman Cyndi Plunkett and recent councilman Don Haddix. Haddix was the leading vote-getter with 45.19 percent and Plunkett was second with 29.04 percent in the three-candidate race. For the Post 1 seat on the City Council voters will choose between Beth Pullias and Eric Imker (winner gets to serve the remaining two years of a four-year term). Pullias won 28.6 percent of the vote Tuesday in a four-candidate race while Imker drew 26.86 percent. The Post 3 runoff features newcomers Kim Learnard and Bob Walsh. The winner will take the seat currently held by Steve Boone, who had the least amount of votes in Tuesday's election. Learnard drew 48.06 percent of voters, falling just short of an outright win, while Walsh got 33.47 percent. Local realtor Vanessa Fleisch was the only outright winner for Peachtree City Thursday as she defeated challenger Les Dyer with nearly 60 percent of the vote.
