There was much to celebrate on the evening of Tuesday, April 5, when supporters of Mayor Richard Veenstra watched the results of the Consolidated Election come in, deeming him the victor in the race for Addison’s top seat. Veenstra ran away with a landslide 77% of the vote over opponent Maria Sinkule and was handily elected Mayor of the Village of Addison by a vote of 1,907-573 (results were unofficial at press time).
In uncontested races, Village Clerk Lucille Zucchero will remain in her seat as well Trustees Catherine L. Kluczny, Sam Nasti and Jay DelRosario.
In the race for Addison Park District Commissioner, it was a little hotter as four candidates vied for two seats. The top vote-getters were Stacey M. Ruffolo (1,131) and Michael James Clementi (1,115). Behind them were Michael Biondo (994) and Adriana Mena (873).
Also running uncontested was Addison Fire Protection District No. 1 Fire Trustee Michael J. Super.
