Deputy Mayor Stacey Jordan Wins Re-Election; Manny Delgado Elected to Council

Moorestown voters voiced their approval for Deputy Mayor Stacey Jordan and Republican running mate Manny Delgado Tuesday night.

Jordan and Delgado defeated their Democratic opponents Edmond George and Elizabeth Endres in Tuesday night’s election, according to unofficial results posted on the Township’s website.

Jordan was the leading vote-getter with 30 percent of the vote. She collected 3,646 votes to retain her position on Council. Delgado collected 3,522 votes for 28 percent.

George and Endres each garnered 21 percent of the vote. Endres collected 2,629 votes, while George collected 2,561 votes.

Mayor Chris Chiacchio decided not to run for another term, meaning Council will select a new mayor at its reorganization meeting in January.

Republicans retained both seats, meaning there are still four Republicans and one Democrat on Council.

A bit of uncertainty hangs over the Board of Education race, in which seven candidates ran for three, three-year seats.

Caryn Shaw was the leading vote-getter, collecting 20 percent of the vote. She was the only candidate to collect over 2,000 votes, as she collected 2,288 votes. Peter Palko collected 16 percent of the votes, with 1,883 voters casting their ballots in his favor.

Two more candidates garnered 14 percent of the votes each, and another two collected 13 percent.

Andrew Roberts and Ann Marie Casinelli each collected 14 percent, with Roberts collecting 1,579 votes and Casinelli winning 1,568 votes.

Frank Gilanelli and Maurice R. Weeks III each garnered 13 percent of the vote, with Weeks gaining 1,497 votes and Gilanelli collecting 1,457 votes.

Jack Lance had 1,173 votes, accounting for 10 percent of the total.

Seats belonging to Board President Don Mishler and Board Members A. Leigh Powell and Christina Zajac were up for grabs, and none of the incumbents ran for re-election.

Results must be certified by the county.
