Ackerman Voters Choose New Mayor

ACKERMAN, Miss. (WCBI) – Ackerman residents went to the polls Tuesday to decide who will lead the city.  Longtime Mayor Dick Cain’s passing in November left the town’s top spot open.

A special election was held in December to fill the remainder of Cain’s term, but no candidate got the majority needed to win, forcing Tuesday’s run-off between Tim Cutts and Dale Reid.

Cutts came out on top with 222 votes to Reid’s 113.
