Keokuk Run-Off Election Results

Keokuk, IA – Keokuk's mayor will remain in office for two more years.

Tom Marion secured a second term after receiving 62% of the votes cast during yesterday's run-off election.

He defeated At-Large Alderman Dan Winn.

Meanwhile, John Helenthal will replace Winn on the Keokuk City Council.

Helenthal received 72% of the vote to defeat Theresia Harmon in the race for a four-year term.

Marion and Helenthal also received the most votes during the November city elections.

They did not clear the 50% threshold, though, which led to yesterday's run-off.

Turnout was much lower this time around as nearly 400 fewer people cast votes in each race.

Helenthal will join the city council early next month.
