WINLOCK, Wash. -- A coin flip is ending Cy Meyers' run as mayor of Winlock.
The results of the Aug. 18 top-two primary showed Glen Cook as the highest vote winner with Meyers' tied with Don Bradshaw for the second spot. Each had 49 votes.
Lewis County Auditor Gary Zandell conducted a recount Wednesday and confirmed the tie.
KITI reports a coin flip is the tie-breaker. Neither Bradshaw nor Meyers was present, so, the auditor drew a name out of a hat for "tails."
Zandell drew Meyers' name. The coin flip came up "heads."
Bradshaw and Cook face off in the November election.
