Don’t let anyone tell you a vote doesn’t count!

Democrat Brandon Jones has been declared the winner — by 11 votes — of Tuesday’s election in the open House District 111 seat. Republican Tim Lee had a two-vote lead Tuesday night, but Jones passed him after officials counted affidavit ballots. -- Associated Press

Jones, a Pascagoula lawyer, replaces Rep. Carmel Wells-Smith, R-Pascagoula. She chose not to seek re-election after 16 years in elected office. She supported Lee.
