With just enough votes to avoid a runoff, Incumbent City Councilman Gary Lewis overcame the challenges of three others Tuesday, and was reelected to a fourth term on Statesboro City Council. Lewis finished ahead of opponents Lance Turner, Sam Jones and Donald Logan in the contest for a council seat with 50.63 percent of votes cast in Statesboro’s District 2. The runner-up, Turner, finished with 32 percent of votes.
