South Kingstown – Congratulations go out to Liz Gledhill South Kingstown Town Council for her official win in the South Kingstown Town Council special election.
“I’m very excited,” said Gledhill after recount numbers were in. “I’m looking forward to working with the council to get things done.”
The State Board of Elections conducted a recount early Wednesday evening, finding no change from the prior count and results in September. Gledhill’s win was certified with the newcomer beating out prior council member Jim O’Neill by a slim 10-vote margin. The lifelong South Kingstown resident was also challenged by Bryant Da Cruz, endorsed Democrat and Republican Joel Dargan. Gledhill will be sworn at the October 13 meeting of the council.
