OPINION — Let’s take a look at the hard data from the recent town elections. The numbers don’t lie. And we can certainly debate causes and conclusions. But this is my take.
Brenda Kalivianakis just received 3,877 votes when running stealthily as part of the Democratic slate. Four years ago, when Kalivianakis ran clearly as part of the Republican slate, she received 5,939 votes. That’s a loss of 2,062 votes, or 35%.
Kalivianakis made an issue this election of receiving the most votes last election. So, what happened?
