Borges, Sloan, Landry win contested races; chairs of HRA, select board cruise to new terms

Town Clerk Lori West announced the results of Hull’s annual town election about an hour after the polls closed on Monday night.

SIGNS OF THE SEASON. Hull voters went to the polls on Monday to cast their ballots in a relatively quiet election, as candidates in most races were unopposed. Last year’s election was more chaotic, as a house fire and resulting detours prevented some people from getting to the high school during polling hours. This year, campaigners Bob Landry, Greg Grey, and  Ed Parsons greeted voters throughout the day. [Skip Tull PHoto]

In the three contested races, Cindy Borges defeated Edwin Parsons for a five-year term on the planning board, while Stephanie Landry retained her seat on the Hull Municipal Light Board, turning back challenges from Mark Kohn and D.J. Simon. Alice Sloan won a one-year term on the board of library trustees, besting Corey Theresa Fitz-Marquez.

Select board Chair Greg Grey was unopposed for another three-year term, while Hull Redevelopment Authority Chair Dennis Zaia also had no opponent for another five-year term. Unopposed (and therefore victorious) candidates included Kyle Conley (school committee) Donna Sullivan and John Michael Waldner (board of assessors), Michael Sampson (housing authority), and James Curtis Miller and Kathleen McKenna (library trustees).
