Kerry Vincent, Sorell's new mayor, campaigning for a Bendigo Bank branch in the sprawling south-eastern town in 2010.

SORELL has a new mayor, with local businessman Kerry Vincent to head the council until the 2013 poll.

The results of the recent by-election were announced today by the Tasmanian Electoral Commission.

Cr Vincent replaces Carmel Torenius, who held the position of mayor for 17 years before making a surprise exit from local government in late September amid a bitter dispute about plans for new $4.5 million chambers and council mergers.

At the time, Cr Torenius told the Mercury she resigned because she no longer had the respect and support of fellow councillors.

Cr Vincent, who has served on the council for three years, received 2823 votes to finish well clear of his closest rival, incumbent Councillor Kerry Degrassi, on 707.

Rob Leach was elected as a councillor ahead of other hopefuls Sharon Prior, John the Duke of Avram and Judy Young.

A total of 4759 electors voted in the poll, representing a return of 48.51 per cent.
