additional commentary by Rep. Timothy Horrigan; October 28, 2014
I was one of the 5 winners out of 6 Democratic candidates on September 9th. The odd person out was Kim Thompson Laughton. David Childs is a (little-known) Republican who ran unopposed on the Republican side. Janet Wall will appear on both sides of the ballot after getting 46 write-ins (11 more than necessary.)
