Enfield Election 2015 Results: Victors Declared in Town Council Races

Incumbents on the Enfield Town Council had the hot hand Tuesday, as all sitting councilors running for re-election retained their seats.

Republicans maintained a 6-5 majority on the council, winning four at-large seats and two districts.

Mayor Scott Kaupin and Republican at-large colleagues Greg Stokes, Donna Szewczak and Carol Hall were all re-elected, as were Democratic at-large incumbents Tom Arnone and Gina Cekala. Kathleen Sarno also won an at-large seat, taking the place of longtime councilor Cindy Mangini, who did not seek re-election due to her enrollment in law school.

Democrat Virginia Higley and write-in candidate Charles Woods did not garner enough votes for election.

Republican District 1 councilor Joe Bosco and District 3 incumbent Bill Lee were each elected for another two-year term. Bosco topped challenger John Foxx, while Lee prevailed over Liz Davis.

Democrat Ed Deni defeated challenger Donna Dubanoski to hold onto his District 4 seat, while longtime District 2 incumbent William “Red” Edgar ran unopposed.
