Jay and Owens to be in the mayoral run-off June 3 – In what should have been about an 1800-vote turnout, Greensboro voters showed much apathy to the special mayoral race Tuesday and gave John C. Jay, Jr., the incumbent mayor, 664 votes while his closest opponent, John Owens, polled 642 votes. Robert H. McMillan’s 28 votes as the third mayoral candidate were enough to keep Jay from getting a majority vote, for a total of 1334 votes in the special municipal election. It appears from the figures that about 466 voters did not care enough about who would win to even turn out to vote in the special race.
