Bridgewater Select Board seat tie resolved

At the conclusion of Tuesday evening’s meeting, Select Board Chair Lynne Bertram announced that Norman “Nope” Martin had declined to participate in a runoff election with George Spear and instead dropped out of the race.

In Australian balloting on March 2, Spear was deadlocked with longtime incumbent board member Martin, 128-128, in the only contested election on the Bridgewater warrant. Spear gratefully accepted the will of the voters and thanked Martin for his service to the community.
