We have a weird layer of government here, something called a township. It's bigger than a city but smaller than a county.

For as long as I can remember (and I've lived here for 45 years), the township supervisor and the trustees have been Republican. There were four Democrats and four Republicans running for the four open trustee spots, along with a Dem and a Repub for supervisor. The Dems swept all those spots.
I hope it's a portent of things to come.
