The results are in for the Roane County Property Assessor race, one that has made news in recent weeks.
 
David Morgan edged out incumbent Teresa Kirkham with more than 40% of the vote.

One of the candidates in the race, J.T. Woods, took his own life back in May.  He shot himself at Kirkham's home.   Woods was a former employee at the Property Assessor's office.

Woods name still appeared on the ballot.   Kirkham suspended her campaign for a week after Woods' death.
