In the closest election race on Tuesday, William Vailliencourt pulled away from his closest opponent Carolyn Henry to win the race for republican candidate for Prosecutor of Livingston County. 

After all precincts were reported, unofficial results show Valliencourt received 10314 votes, Henry received 9103 votes and Lyle Dickson received 2061 votes.

Running in his first election, Vailliencourt thanked the voters of Livingston County for their support.

“I think they (voters) agreed with my positive campaign and agreed with my message of experience matters,” Vailliencourt said.

Vailliencourt will face democrat candidate Matt Evans and says the experience he gained from the “spirited” primary will help him be a stronger candidate.

“I look forward to the fall campaign and look forward to the republican victory,” he said.
