LONG BEACH — Lifelong District 4 resident Daryl Supernaw will soon join the Long Beach City Council.

Supernaw beat Herlinda Chico and Richard Lindemann in a winner-take-all special election April 14. He took 52 percent of the vote. Chico got 42.4 percent of the district vote and Lindemann only took 4.8 percent of the vote.

The election ushered him into the seat that now-Assemblyman Patrick O’Donnell vacated.

The new councilman-elect said the election sent a message to constituents.

“It shows that a truly independent candidate can win,” he said. “I hope to continue serving the 4th District and the city for many years.”
