On January 4, Okayguy dropped out of the race, with Buzz Aldrin being nominated. Okayguy's decision to drop out this late into the race drew controversy, as Aldrin was unable to participate in a debate with Manson.

On January 5, 2022, Manson defeated Aldrin with 61 votes and 36 votes respectively. This was the first election since September 2021 where the winning candidate had less than 60% of the vote.
