The first results of today’s primary released by the Clark County Election Department show Sen. Joe Hardy leading the race for mayor of Boulder City.

With 10 percent of the vote centers reporting, Hardy received 1,749 votes, or 63.05 percent of the votes. Incumbent Mayor Kiernan McManus received 875 votes, or 31.54 percent.

Tanya Vece, who withdrew from the race May 22, received 150 votes, or 5.41 percent.

In the race for two City Council seats, Steve Walton and Cokie Booth are in the lead 1,580 and 1.254 votes, or 32.49 and 25.79 percent, respectively. Incumbent James Howard Adams is in third place with 877 votes or 18.03 percent of the votes, followed by Rose Marie Hess with 692 votes, or 14.23 percent of the votes. Valerie McNay is in fifth place with 460 votes, or 9.46 percent of the votes.

A candidate will be considered elected if they receive votes equal to a majority of those casting ballots in the election.

The most important part of what happens in a city council meeting is not always the vote. Sometimes it is something that seems minor at the time.

When Utilities Director Joe Stubitz briefed the city council on the status of Boulder City’s Dark Sky initiative, which involves replacing hundreds of street light fixtures with modern versions that aim light onto the ground and not into the sky, it was notable for reasons beyond spending and how soon the program would be finished.
