Fisher won the election with 669 votes against her challenger Joni K. Clonts, who got 320 votes. Fisher and Clonts faced each other in the May 3 elections along with candidate Jessica James but none of the three candidates received more than 50% of the vote, triggering Saturday's runoff election, which Fisher has now won.
In 2023, KETK spoke with Fisher about her career in education, her work in philanthropy and being an ordained minister and mentor.
