Several incumbents will keep their seats in Lincoln County according to unofficial results from Tuesday’s general election.

At least 10,500 voters went to the polls in Lincoln County and another 724 voted absentee, according to unofficial results. Circuit clerk workers were still tabulating absentee and affidavit votes at press time late Tuesday.

In the Post 2 Justice Court Judge race, Republican incumbent Roger Martin defeated Democrat Valerie Moore, 3,131 to 1,907. That’s 62.05 percent of the vote. This will be Martin’s second four-year term as judge.

“I just appreciate all the support, all the votes, all the prayers mainly,” Martin said after the last precinct’s votes were counted. “We will just keep doing what we’re doing and be fair to everybody. Treat everybody the same, no matter what, you apply the law. Law is easy, you just have to apply it. “
