BALANCE OF POWER UP FOR GRABS IN MIDDLE TWP. TUESDAY

For the first time in decades Middle Township may fall into the hands of the republican party on Tuesday.  A big election is being held for one township committee seat in Middle Township Tuesday.  Longtime committeeman and former mayor Nate Doughty decided not to seek re-election.  Three candidates are on Tuesday’s Middle Township ballot.  If republicans win the seat on Tuesday, it’s very likely the township will be getting a republican mayor.  Middle Township has long been a democratic community in a largely republican county.  Tim Donohue, Steven Russell, and William Sturm III are the three candidates.
