Mark Fleming and Amy Steward have won the Coronado City Council race after Laura Wilkinson Sinton conceded on Dec. 3 after the final election results were released by the Registrar of Voters.
Fleming leads the race with 22.57% of votes as of Dec. 3 and Amy Steward is in second at 19.81%. Wilkinson Sinton follows closely behind at 19.3%, or 80 votes short.
Wilkinson Sinton announced her concession on facebook, congratulating Fleming and Steward.
“It has been a great campaign — and I am so grateful to my supporters and all of Coronado,” reads the Dec. 3 post. “With the final counts in today, I concede the race and want to congratulate Mark Fleming and Amy Steward, who will serve as our new City Council members in Coronado.”
Fleming is a 66-year-old retiree who previously owned and operated two businesses with over 800 employees— a large commercial electrical contracting company called Corbins and a technology and innovation company that provides services to the construction industry, NOX innovations. Â
This was Steward’s first run for office, but she has been active in local schools and as founder and president of Emerald Keepers, a non-profit organization in Coronado that aims to address environmental stewardship.
