No Change to Any Elected Position in Old Lyme After Recount, Lowry (D) Wins BOE Seat by One Vote

OLD LYME — A recount of votes cast in Tuesday’s election was held Monday in the Meeting Room at Old Lyme Town Hall for the four offices shown below. The recount was held for these offices because, in each case, the vote totals announced on Election Day were less than 20 votes apart.

  • Selectman:
    Judith Read (R)
  • Board of Assessment Appeals:
    Peter Hunt (D)
  • Zoning Board of Appeals Alternate:
    Kathleen Tracy (D)
