Terri Michal has been declared the winner in a tight race for the Birmingham City Board of Education District 2 seat.

Just 10 votes separated her from Brandon McCray after provisional ballots were counted and the vote certified Tuesday. Michal got 1,719 of those to McCray’s 1,709.

In the initial vote count after polls closed Aug. 22, Michal had 1,717 votes and McCray 1,705.

The district 2 school board race was the only one close enough to be an issue in counting of provisional ballots. Five board races will go to runoffs Oct. 3.
