Recall Vote for Flint City Council Third Ward Seat Will Not be Counted on the November 5 Ballot

This is due to the passing away of Quincy Murphy, the councilman who held the Third Ward Seat, which voids the recall initiative. Because absentee ballots had already been distributed at the time of his passing, the recall vote could not be removed from the ballot. The Flint City Council will appoint a new councilman to represent the Third Ward until the next general election, according to reporting from ABC12.
