Split decision: Each group has two winners on City Council
Democratic Party voters offered a split decision between the two groups of Johnstown City Council candidates that campaigned against each other in this year’s primary.
One three-term incumbent led all candidates, but another was defeated in the Republican primary for two Richland Township supervisor seats.
Four of the five candidates supported by CEASE, a citizens group with a motto of fighting tax increases in the Westmont Hilltop School District while protecting education, won the four-year seats available in the identical order on both the Republican and Democratic tickets Tuesday.
3 incumbents feel N.C. wrath
Voters in the Northern Cambria School District spoke loudly in Tuesday’s primary election, as three of the four incumbents failed to earn the Democrat or Republican nomination.
Area voters took to the polls Tuesday to cast their ballots, with many saying school board and council or supervisors races were the driving force that brought them out.
Incumbents advance: 5 candidates in city cross-file for victory
Five incumbents cross-filed, as Democrats and Republicans, and entered races for both four- and two-year seats on the Greater Johnstown school board.
Nobody else appeared on any ballot.
Patton, in a resounding upset, will have a new mayor, and all four incumbents in the Penn Cambria school board race will remain at their posts.
Three incumbent Richland Township school board members and a newcomer won nominations for four slots on both primary ballots Tuesday, virtually eliminating a ballot contest in the November election.
Windber Borough apparently will have a new mayor.
A Somerset attorney has a clear path to become the next district judge in the county’s northern tier.
