Unofficial Results of ANC 1A Election
Map of ANC 1A showing borders and locations of Single Member Districts (SMDs).
It’s been a week since the general election, and I finally know who all the commissioners will be for ANC 1A in the 2015-2016 term. While the DC Board of Elections is still counting absentee and special ballots and official results have not yet been released, the races for ANC 1A had wide enough margins where any changes to the vote count will not change the outcome. This wasn’t true for all ANC races this year, where five races ended with a vote difference no greater than 3 votes making them too close to call and pending the outcome of the official results.
In addition, there were two Single Member Districts in ANC 1A where no candidate appeared on the ballot, but where there were successful write-in candidates. I’ve recently learned who won in both of these races, meaning I now know the full list of who will be on the Commission come January.
The list of ANC 1A Commissioners for the 2015-1016 term is below. Those in bold are returning from the current term.
- Marvin L. Johnson (1A01)
- Josue Salmeron (1A02) – unopposed
- Tom Gordon (1A03) – write in
- Matthew Goldschmidt (1A04)
- Thu-Huong Nguyen (1A05) – write in
- Patrick W. Flynn (1A06) – unopposed
- Darwain Frost (1A07) – unopposed
- Kent Boese (1A08) – unopposed
- Bobby Holmes (1A09)
- Rashida Brown (1A10) – unopposed
- Dotti Love Wade (1A11) – unopposed
- Margaret Hundley (1A12)
I’ll do my best too get some biographical information on all of the incoming commissioners soon.
Below are the unofficial results from the general election.

What does under votes and over votes mean?

I believe under means no vote and over means the person marked too many candidates for the same position

Kent,
In your new term I hope you focus on Public Safety. We’ve had four shootings within a block of the Rec Center in the last ~15 months. The Ty Hop tournament has been bringing a lot of noise and loitering to the surrounding blocks. This winter would be a good time to start working with DPR to find a more suitable location for the tournament, before it becomes set in stone.
