When the polls closed Tuesday night in Ocean City’s municipal election, it seemed almost certain that some of the candidates would retain or win terms on City Council. But not so with the race for the Third Ward Council seat held by incumbent Jody Levchuk. The sliver of a margin between him and his challenger, Amie Vaules, couldn’t get much smaller. Two votes separated them at the end of Election Night, with Levchuk receiving 391 votes in the unofficial totals and Vaules garnering 389. “There is more to come, so hang in there,” said Cape May County Clerk Rita M. Rothberg.
