One local race of note for Roswell voters is the Ga. House District 48 seat.

Former longtime Roswell mayor Jere Wood was trailing incumbent Betty Price in the Republican primary in voting results late Tuesday.

Here are the latest vote counts in that contest.

The winner will face Democrat Mary Robichaux in the November general election.

Wood was Roswell's mayor from 1997 through 2017. A judge ruled that Wood couldn't run again for mayor in the 2017 election because he violated term limits the city had established.
