Jon Green and V Fixmer-Oraiz win Democratic nomination for Johnson County Supervisor seats

With 100% of precincts reporting Tuesday, incumbent Jon Green and V Fixmer-Oraiz won the Democratic primary race for two seats on the Johnson County Board of Supervisors.

The raw vote count is 8,495 votes (69%) for Green, 8,199 votes (67%) for Fixmer-Oraiz and 7,827 votes (64%) for Zimmermann. There were 67 write-in votes cast. Each voter was allowed to vote for a maximum of two candidates.

Republicans Phil Hemingway and Jammie Bradshaw ran uncontested for the two seats in their party's primary election on Tuesday.

Fixmer-Oraiz is a resident of Iowa City and the CEO and founder of Astig Planning, a firm that focuses on climate change impacts and social and racial justice. If elected in November, they would be Johnson County's first openly transgender elected official in history.
