TOWN OF WAWARSING
In an interesting turn of events, residents of the Town of Wawarsing swung all the way to the left, as candidates running on the Democratic line took a clean sweep of every race.

For the position of Town Supervisor, challenger Lenny Distel defeated one-term incumbent Ed Jennings by a margin of 354 votes, about 15 percent of the votes cast for the position. The two contested seats on the town council also went to the Democrats, with newcomer Steve Bradley and incumbent John Gavaris garnering 1,500 and 1,114 votes, respectively, while Republican challengers Richard "Doc" Craft and Dan Johnson were unable to crack the thousand-vote mark.    > MORE
