David Stoltz and Carley Logan appeared to be the top two vote-getters in a three-person race for the Republican nomination for seats on Lower Burrell Council.

With 100% of precincts reporting results and most write-in votes tallied, Stoltz had collected 38.2% of the GOP votes counted, Logan had 36% and candidate Lance Anthony had 24.9%, according to unofficial results from the Westmoreland County Elections Bureau.

A total of 1,136 votes had been tallied as of 10:30 p.m., with Stoltz collecting 435, Logan with 409 and Anthony with 283, the results showed.

Incumbent Stoltz and newcomers Logan and Anthony were the candidates for two seats on council on the Republican ballot. Councilwoman Brandy Grieff did not seek reelection.

There were no Democrats on the ballot vying for the four-year seats, but 89 write-in votes were cast. Who those votes were cast for was not immediately available.

All candidates said they were running for council to advance and spur business growth and development in the city.

Stoltz, 53, is finishing his first term on council. He is a sales engineer for an industrial heat manufacturer. He’s touted accomplishments such as filling Burrell Plaza with Schaedler Yesco, U-Haul and Dunkin’, and decreasing operational costs and increasing communication with the streets department that he oversees.

“I hope it has a lot to do with some of the good things I’ve done over the past four years,” Stoltz said Thursday night. “I appreciate everyone’s vote, and I’m thankful to continue what we’ve been doing in the city.”

Logan, 34, is a stay-at-home mom and president of the city’s Parks and Recreation Commission. During the campaign, she promoted her efforts in planning and coordinating citywide holiday events and growing the farmers market.

“I have proven myself,” Logan said Thursday. “I have a good track record. There was a reason to back it up.”

“People liked the fact I had an actual plan to better the city. … I’m confident I can do a good job.”

Anthony, 56, is a retired PennDOT equipment operator. He was a constable for 28 years and previously said he was running for council to continue the city’s efforts trying to bring in businesses.
