Coin toss decides seat for Morganfield City Council

MORGANFIELD, Ky. (WFIE) - A candidate for Morganfield City Council can now say he has tied twice.

Mike Moore and Suzanne Carr both held 413 votes, calling for a coin flip to settle the tie. Morganfield Mayor Randy Greenwell says Moore won and now he’s “2 for 2.”

He also tied for a council seat back in 2012 and won the coin flip that year as well. Moore says he’s grateful to get the chance to serve on the city council again.

Moore says he looks forward to serving the Morganfield area and continuing to help with the city’s progress.

“I just always like working for the people, you know, I’d tell the mayor and stuff, you know, we’re elected to work for the people to represent the people and I take that with great honor,” said Moore.

Greenwell says Moore is qualified for the jobs and he looks forward to working alongside him on the council.
