Who Won Election 2012: Tiverton and Little Compton Unofficial Results
Keep up with the local tallies on Tiverton-Little Compton Patch as the results roll in tonight in real time.
The unofficial results are in, declaring the winners and losers in the local races and candidates who hung in on the campaign trail for 13 hours on Election Day, traveling to polling precincts, touting political signs and braving 30-degree temperatures.
Tiverton Town Council Incumbent Jay J. Lambert mimicked his 2010 win, again pulling in the highest number of votes with 2,925 total votes, according to tallies from the town's seven precincts.
Incumbents Edward A. Roderick, Brett N. Pelletier and Joan Chabot will join Lambert at the table when the new council is sworn in on Tuesday, Nov. 13 at the Town Hall.
Newcomers to the council are Denise M. deMedeiros, James J. Arruda, and William P. Gerlach.
These approximate counts do not include 515 absentee ballots.
In Little Compton, the incumbent Town Council ran unopposed.
