CUMMING — Forsyth County will have a new solicitor general come January. William “Bill” Finch secured 9,611 votes, or about 60 percent, to defeat incumbent Donna Gopaul, who tallied 6,317 votes, or about 40 percent, of the nearly 16,000 ballots cast in the primary runoff election Tuesday. No Democrats chose to run for the post in the Nov. 4 General Election, so Finch will begin a four-year term in January.
