Meanwhile, in the Town Commission race, incumbent Gerardo Vildostegui holds a narrow lead over current fifth-place challenger Andrea Travani -- but not by a large enough margin to escape a recount, per state election rules. Four seats total are up for grabs.

@melissamoore It's the same link.

@JesseScheckner Do you, perchance, have a link to the updated article?

Hello, @JesseScheckner and @PeterSchorschFL!! Any chance we could get this article corrected, and an Editor’s Note at the top indicating the correction? The error in the article has caused some significant confusion. Selena Samios defeated incumbent Adam Miller in the Royal Palm Beach race for seat one on the council. Thank you so much. floridapolitics.com/archives/78468…

@melissamoore Thank you.

@melissamoore Corrected and noted.
