Alexandria has a new mayor.

Bennett Armstrong came out on top in the Alexandria mayor’s race Thursday, defeating incumbent Tony Tarpley 60 votes to 35. Armstrong will finish the two-year remainder of the unexpired term of Jim York, who was elected to the office in 2013, but resigned three days later because of disagreements with the board of aldermen. Tarpley was appointed to the mayor’s seat after York’s resignation, and has held the seat since October 2013.

While nine Alexandria voters made their way to the courthouse in Smithville to vote early, 86 ballots were cast at the fairgrounds on election day for a total of 95. Armstrong received 52 election day votes and 8 early votes, while Tarpley took 34 votes on election day and one early vote

The voters of the city also cast ballots for six aldermanic positions, included four for full four-year terms and two to fill vacant seats for two years. Candidates for all six offices were unopposed.

Kelly Pyburn (71 votes), David Cripps (61 votes), and John F. Suggs (46 votes) will serve four-year terms, while Danny Parkerson (78 votes) and Matthew Boss (63 votes) will serve for two years.

Pyburn took 62 election day votes and nine early votes, Cripps received 53 votes on election day and eight early votes, and Suggs garnered 39 election day votes and seven early votes. Parkerson’s campaign netted 69 election day votes and nine early votes, while Boss got 54 votes on election day and nine early votes.
