Hi Everyone! I met our Election Adminstrator, Hugh Moren, last evening and he followed up with some helpful information regarding our local elections. His note trails below along with his contact information should you have any questions.
It looks like the Second Ward will again only have one candidate. Charlie Holder is going to Run At Large and Lynn Ceglie is going to run unopposed in our Ward...unless someone declares before June 26th - milestone dates below. There's also helpful information about working the polls.
Best,
Laurie
Note from Hugh:
