Madison residents were casting their votes for more than just candidates this election with three questions on the ballot, one for the State concerning early voting and the two questions concerning the Town Charter.

In the two Town-specific ballot questions, voters overwhelmingly supported both measures. The first question, which would change the term length for members of Board of Selectmen from two years to four years, received 5,035 votes in favor of the change and 3,654 against it. The second ballot question asked voters to weigh in on all potential Town Charter changes, and voters approved the measure by a wider margin of support, 5,285 in favor and 2,774 opposed.

Madison voters also soundly voted in favor the State’s proposal for a constitutional amendment to allow early voting, approving the measure by a 5,930 to 3,150 tally.

In the candidate races, incumbent State Senator Christine Cohen garnered more votes for the 12th General Assembly District over her Republican challenger Paul Crisci by a 5,688 to 4,085 margin.

Incumbent Democrat John-Michael Parker totaled 5,694 votes while challenger John Rasimas came in at 4,113 in the race for State Representative for the 101st District.
