MOSES LAKE — The Grant County Democrats have announced the winners in their second annual Candy Count game.

The game took place at the Democrats’ booth at the Grant County Fair. Contestants were invited to guess the number of candies in a jar. The container held 297 candies, according to an email from Grant County Democrats Vice Chair Jill Springer Forrest.
