IOWA CITY
Jon Green, a current Johnson County Supervisor and former Lone Tree Mayor, topped the voting results among Democrats in Tuesday's primary.
Green received 8,495 votes, or 69%, to finish number one in the primary. He'll appear in the general election in November as one of four candidates going after two seats on the five-member Johnson County Board of Supervisors.
"I'm grateful for the confidence of Johnson County Democrats to continue representing us on the general election ballot in November," Green told The News. "I'm looking forward to a positive issues-based campaign. Johnson County has lots of opportunity, but there is also an awful lot that needs to improve and I'm excited to discuss the best path forward."
V Fixmer-Oraiz, a Democrat who is managing the Historic Poor Farm project in Iowa City, also won a spot on the ballot, receiving 8,199 votes, or 67%, to beat out Seth Zimmermann of the Solon area. Zimmermann came in with 64%, or 7,825 votes.
Jammie Bradshaw of Lone Tree will be on the November ballot as a Republican after receiving 2,172 votes, or 83% of the ballots cast. Phil Hemingway will also be on the ballot after receiving 2,999 votes in the primary.
"I am very excited for this election season," Bradshaw said. "I also think that the candidates give all the voters a great selection to pick from. I expect great things to come out of this election season."
Heather Hora of Riverside, a Republican running for state rep in District 92, topped primary balloting in Johnson County with 314 votes, or 79%.
