Wibanks received 60 percent of the votes beating out her opponents George Fite with 27 percent and Joe Harrison with 11 percent of the votes. There were 82 under votes in this race.
There were 4,544 unofficial votes cast in the Cass County primary election. The county reports that it has 18,955 registered voters for the election.
