Barnstable Council Election Results: Ludtke, Cusack Win Seats

BARNSTABLE, MA — Unofficial election results from the town of Barnstable have come in at last. This, of course, comes after a primary election day which saw ballots locked in a town vault, delayed voting and, eventually, allowed residents to vote until midnight on Tuesday.

However, now that the results are in, there's a clearer picture of who will represent two precincts on the Town Council.

A special election was held alongside the primary election for state races, which saw John Crown and Paul Cusack run for the Precinct 5 seat, and Jignesh Amin, Betty Ludtke and Jacob Dewey run for the seat in Precinct 3.

Per the unofficial results, Ludtke has won in precinct 3, while Cusack took the victory in precinct five.

Here are the vote totals:

Precinct 3

• Jignesh Amin — 100
• Betty C. Ludtke — 314
• Jacob Dewey — 191

Precinct 5

• John Crow — 595
• Paul Cusack — 639
