Monroe Election Results 2021: Vote Tally Reportedly Under Review

MONROE, CT — While Republican First Selectman Ken Kellogg won re-election as an unopposed candidate, votes from two districts in Monroe will be recounted, reported the Connecticut Post.

The machine counts and the number of ballots in districts 1 and 2 reportedly will recounted Wednesday, which will delay the unofficial tally.

Even with the recount looming, it appeared as if Republicans would hold power in Monroe, Kellogg told the Post.

Unofficial results from the Secretary of State's office were delayed Wednesday due to a glitch in displaying the numbers:

Fellow Republicans Vida Stone (Town Clerk); Patrick O’Hara (Town Treasurer); and Deborah E. Heim (Tax Collector) also ran unopposed.

The contested races included the following:

Board of Education:

Democrats - Theresa Oleyar; Jerry Stevens; and Chrissy Fensore Martinez

Republicans - Justin Orlando; Jeffrey Fulchino; Dennis Condon; and Christine Cascella

Board of Finance: Democrat Samantha Spino vs. Republican Greg Beno

Planning and Zoning Commission: Democrat BJ Hall is running against Republicans Robert Westlund and Michael O'Reilly.

Constable: Democrat Pat Tomchik vs. Republican Jim Weinberg

For the Town Council, the candidates were as follows:

Democrats - Spencer Wesley; Anthony Agnessanto; Jason Maur; Dee Dee Martin; Jessica Katuska
