R. Bruce Allen is winning against Thomas Gill in the race for Position 4 on the  Langley City Council.

According to the first vote tally released on Election Night by Island County election workers, Allen was in front of fellow council hopeful Gill with 52 percent of the vote.

Gill has 47 percent of the vote.

Gill has tried three times to nab a council seat, dating back to 2009. He lost in a prior race against Russell Sparkman, and was passed over twice by the council for an appointed position.
