TownTalk: Gill Wins Ward 4, Henderson City Council Seats Come December

/by

As a result of Tuesday’s runoff election for the Ward 4 seat on the Henderson City Council, Catherine “Kitty” Gill will join fellow newcomer Kenia Gomez-Jimenez and two incumbents to be sworn in at the City Council’s December meeting.

Gill beat incumbent Ola Thorpe-Cooper to take the seat.

Gomez-Jimenez beat incumbent Ward 1 at-large Council member Sara Coffey in the Oct. 7 election. Incumbents Garry Daeke (Ward 3) and Lamont Noel (Ward 2 at-large) also won their contests in the Oct. 7 election.

Gill led Thorpe-Cooper by 12 votes in the Oct. 7 election, prompting a runoff on Nov. 4. The unofficial tally was 132 to 84 in Gill’s favor. County elections officials will convene on Nov. 14 to certify the results of the Nov. 4 elections, which also included contests for mayors and council members in Kittrell and Middleburg.

Following the December installation, the Henderson City Council makeup is as follows:

  • Ward 1 – Geraldine Champion
  • Ward 1 at-large – Kenia Gomez-Jimenez

 

  • Ward 2 – Sam Seifert
  • Ward 2 at-large – Lamont Noel

 

  • Ward 3 – Garry Daeke
  • Ward 3 at-large – Michael Venable

 

  • Ward 4 – Catherine “Kitty” Gill
  • Ward 4 at-large – Tami Walker

 

The council members serve four-year staggered terms and the mayor serves a four-year term.

In the 2027 municipal elections, Henderson voters will vote for mayor, as well as Wards 1 and 2 aldermen, and Wards 3 and 4 at-large aldermen.
