2025 Election Results Across Coweta County

In Coweta County less than 25% of the registered voters made all the decisions. 27,182 voters out of 110,656 registered showed up to the polls.  In several municipalities, incumbent mayors went down with the vote. 

Here are the results of the election:

For a non-presidential year and no major statewide races, Senoia saw decent turnout for their mayoral election, 38.52% of registered voters. They were there to hand the role of mayor over to Senoia’s major developer Scott Tigchelaar who won with nearly 66% of the vote. Incumbent Mayor William “Dub” Pearman, III got 581 votes to Tigchelaar’s 1,127.
