Trenton councilwoman leads by 7 with 30 votes left to count

Thirty uncounted ballots remain from the December 3 runoff election for the South Ward seat on the Trenton City Council, where incumbent Jenna Figueroa Kettenburg is seven votes ahead.

Kettenburg leads challenger Damian Malave, 357-350, a margin of 50.5% to 49.5%.

Depending on challenges, nineteen provisional ballots and eleven vote-by-mail ballots need to be counted. The number could increase if more ballots, postmarked by 8 PM on December 3, arrive by the close of business on December 9.

The Mercer County Board of Elections plans to meet on December 10 at 4 PM to count the remaining ballots and declare a winner. If the election ends in a tie, a judge must order a new election.
