“Tuesday was a good day for Democrats in Newtown and across Bucks County.

Democrats saw strong turnout (20%+ over Republicans) in Newtown and Bucks County on Tuesday, a positive sign for the Fall. In Newtown Township, Supervisor candidates Ed Merriman and Melissa Merk nearly doubled their opponents’ votes.

In Newtown Borough, nearly three times as many Democrats voted for our candidates than did the Republicans for theirs. Future efforts are key to boost turnout and highlight local politics. Thanks to all involved; more opportunities to contribute are coming.”
