It’s Falls in District 1
We goofed in our results box today on page B1. The accompanying story was correct, and Luther T. Falls Jr. indeed advanced to the general election Nov. 8 with a second-place finish in the District 1 primary. Falls had 231 votes, or 23 percent, and finished behind incumbent Dianne Bellamy-Small. Charles Coffey, with 140 votes, was the third-place finisher and is eliminated.
The error occurred when the story moved from one newsroom desk to another. The results for Falls and Coffey were accidentally flopped when page B1 was assembled.
