Brunswick County results in the
Nov. 8 general election generally
followed the same pattern seen
statewide, with several notable exceptions.
While local voters favored a
Republican presidential and gubernatorial
ticket and elected four
Republicans to local office, they gave
the nod to Democratic candidates for
Council of State and the judiciary.
Here as it was elsewhere the lieutenant
governor's race was the closest
state-level race. In Brunswick County
Democrat Tony Rand, who made
qpvpral pnmnoion 1 1 ?
vui.^ulgll VIOIU) 11C1 C, 11 till a
26-vote edge over Republican Jim
Gardner. However, Gardner was
elected as the next lieutenant governor.
While Court of Appeals Judge
Robert F. Orr, a Republican, received
enough votes statewide to win
election, in Brunswick County his
Democratic opponent, John R. Friday,
had the edge.
Locally, 13th District Judges
William C. Gore, Jerry A. Jolly and
D. Jack Hooks Jr. were re-elected
without opposition.
Unofficial returns of the election
were unchanged following the canvass
conducted by the Brunswick
Ocean Isle Re(
On Canal Dre<
Ocean Isle Beach Mayor Betty
Williamson will negotiate with a local
firm for the dredging of five east-end
canals following bid openings last
[ week.
G&G Dredging Inc. of Holden
Beach offered a bid of $2.25 per cubic
yard of dredge spoil, the lowest of
three offers received last Thursday.
With the project expected to include
60,000 cubic yards, the approximate
cost of the dredging will be $135,000.
I Before the excavation work begins,
however, Mayor Williamson said she
will negotiate for construction of a
dike in which to store the spoil. She
said last week she planned to meet
with the contractor and island
developer Odell Williamson, who
earlier stated his willingness to work
out an agreement with the town for
use of some land near the intersection
of Craven and Concord streets as
a spoil site.
Construction of the dike, which the
mayor said will cost about $20,000,
will probably be handled by a contractor
other than the one hired to do
the actual dredging.
