Bend's new City Councilor for position seven is now official; it's Scott Ramsay. Election workers conducted a recount and the vote difference between Scott Ramsay and Chuck Arnold was only three votes. The recount resulted in a one vote gain for Scott Ramsay, who says he's ready to get to work: “It's a relief have it behind me, so now I can start concentrating on what I need to do to jump in with both feet come January.” His challenger, Chuck Arnold says the whole process has been a positive one and he wouldn't hesitate to run again: “I feel, after spending yesterday watching the recount process, which was mandated by the State and spending the day watching that and the thoroughness and care of which our County Clerk goes through to make sure this is done in the most equitable way, I'm blown away and very satisfied with the result.”  Scott Ramsay will take office in January.
