Voters have now determined who will be in November’s general election for the Lansing City Council.

Last night, at large aspirants Judi Brown-Clarke and Ted O’Dell were among the top four finishers.  That means they will compete with the two successful incumbents, Brian Jeffries and Kathie Dunbar, for two seats this fall.  

In the fourth ward, incumbent Jessica Yorko prevailed, along with challenger Chong-Anna Canfora.  They will face each other in three months.   

O'Dell and Canfora join Current State to talk about what they've learned so far & what's ahead.
