Incumbent Red Lake Nation Chairman Floyd Jourdain Jr. and his challenger, Secretary Judy Roy, received the most votes in the Minnesota tribe's election.
According to unofficial results, Jourdain received 47 percent of the vote. Roy received 29 percent . Since neither candidate won 50 percent of the vote, a run-off will be scheduled.
Except for the treasurer's race, which was won outright by Darrell Seki, none of the candidates for secretary or for the four seats on the tribal council received more than 50 percent of the vote. Run-offs will be held for these posts as well.
