Darrell Dixon was elected alderman Thursday in the Alexandria Municipal Election.
That is not surprising since his name was the only one on the ballot. Dixon received a total of twelve votes, including ten on election day and two absentees.
Three aldermen were to have been elected but no one else qualified to run. It’ll apparently be up to the Alexandria Mayor and Board of Aldermen to appoint persons to fill those other two positions along with a third aldermen seat, which has been vacant for several months.
The Alexandria city government is made up of a mayor and six aldermen. Each term of office is for four years.
