Fulton County election results

Voter turnout for Fulton County's general election Tuesday was 67.44 percent, with 8,928 of the county's 13,238 registered voters casting a ballot either early, by mail or at the polls.

Results of Fulton County's general election Tuesday were by and large those of the May primary, as no Republican candidate for local office was contested. 

Kathy Adamson, the county's current treasurer, will move to the auditor's office on Jan. 1. She was elected auditor Tuesday after securing the Republican nomination for the office by a margin of only eight votes in the primary over County Councilwoman Lorie Hurst. She received a total of 7,433 votes in Tuesday's general election.

Taking over as treasurer in the new year is Republican Jennifer Utter, who was unopposed in both the primary and general election. She currently serves as deputy treasurer for the county and received 7,485 votes.

Two new faces joining the Fulton County Council are Barry Baldwin and Patty Geier. They, along with incumbent Councilman Steve Fishburn, won Republican nominations in the primary for three at-large seats on the council. Matthew Finke, also in that race, fell short of securing enough votes to move on to the general election. 

In the general election, Baldwin received 1,971 votes, Fishburn received 1,723 and Geier received 1,489.

Also unopposed in both the primary and general election, Jon Good, receiving 7,592 votes, was elected coroner. He is the brother of current Fulton County Coroner Jeri Good.

Other Republicans facing no opposition in the general election and reelected are: Dave Sommers, District 1 commissioner, with 7,267 votes; Rick Ranstead, District 3 commissioner, with 7,283 votes; and Greg Heller, Fulton Superior Court judge, with 7,598 votes.
