New faces coming to Bibb County commission. Here are the apparent winners

There are no official results for most races, but we can tell you about the apparent winners

MACON, Ga. — This year's election was a little different with long delays, technical problems, and more than a million Georgians voting by mail.

So, we still have no official final results for most races, but we can tell you about some of the apparent winners.

For example, Bibb County is electing four new county commissioners and Paul Bronson in District 2 will likely be one of them.

He's a former firefighter, a major in the US Army reserve and he's pursuing a PhD in clinical psychology from Emory.

He's got a big lead over Wesley Stroud in District 2.

In District 5, Seth Clark and Carlton Kitchens are headed to a runoff in August. Kitchens now has a 260-vote lead for the second spot over Erion Smith.

Raymond Wilder could be the next commissioner for District 6. He's currently got 62% of the vote over Donald Druitt and Robert Abbott. Wilder's an insurance adjuster.

Bill Howell leads the District 7 race, and based on the current numbers, he and Bonnie Thompson would be headed for a runoff. Howell has 49 percent, so with votes still being counted, that could change. Howell's a general contractor.

Some familiar faces will also be back on the county commission next year. Valerie Wynn, Mallory Jones, Virgil Watkins and Al Tillman all beat challengers on Tuesday. Elaine Lucas had no opponent.

Again, all of those results are still unofficial
