ERVING — The town election went as anticipated on Monday, with all candidates winning seats in uncontested races.
Twenty-eight of the town’s 1,258 registered voters showed up to the polls, making for a 2.23% turnout. Town Clerk Richard Newton said the low turnout could likely be attributed to a lack of contested races and lingering COVID-19 concerns.
The results of the election are as follows:
■Scott M. Bastarache, Selectboard (three-year term), with 27 votes.
■Mark D. Burnett, Board of Assessors (three-year term), with 25 votes.
■Michelle M. Turner, tax collector (three-year term), with 26 votes.
■Patricia S. Semb, library trustee (three-year term), with 26 votes.
■Richard K. Peabody, moderator (one-year term), with 27 votes.
■Jennifer L. Eichorn, School Committee (three-year term), with 25 votes.
■Michael J. Gordon, tree warden (one-year term), with 27 votes.
■Richard W. Newton, constable (three-year term), with 28 votes.
■Janice E. Vega-Liros, Planning Board (three-year term), with 23 votes.
■Jacquelyn M. Boyden, Planning Board (three-year term), with 25 votes.
■Melanie J. Burnett, Planning Board (one-year term), with 27 votes.
■Jeffrey A. Rollins, Recreation Commission (three-year term), with 20 votes.
■Leo J. Parent Jr., Board of Health (three-year term), with 27 votes.
■Jeffrey P. McAndrews, Board of Health (two-year term), with 27 votes.
■Jay R. Niedbala, Board of Health (one-year term), with 27 votes.
Although Liz Donald won a three-year seat on the Recreation Commission with two write-in votes, she declined to accept the position, according to Assistant Town Clerk Betsy Sicard.
