BERLIN – With the latest filing deadline passed, voters now know candidates for this year’s local elections.
Though a case involving legislative redistricting delayed the primary election and filing deadlines, candidates were required to file by April 15. Many of Worcester County’s races will be decided with the July 19 primary election. The general election is scheduled for Nov. 1.
