Registered voters in Marion County went to the polls May 7 to decide which candidates will move on to the general election in November. As of the morning of May 8, most of the races had enough votes counted and a wide enough margin to declare a winner (in italics). In the interest of space, the Recorder is listing only those races that had more than one candidate.
