NEWPORT — An election season that saw some of the fiercest campaigning for State’s Attorney in recent local history, came to an end last night.
Jennifer Barrett came out on top of the hotly contested race, winning over 1,500 more votes than James Lillicrap.
We’d like to congratulate all candidates for their hard work, and for running honest and respectful campaigns, free from the negativity that has started to turn people away from politics. The Northeast Kingdom should be proud that our politicians have proven to be competitive, but respectful toward each other.
A list of the results from other major local races are listed below:
