Gorham and Hopewell residents have a clearer idea about  who may lead their towns in th thee new year, although that’s not the case in South Bristol. In Richmond, residents will see incumbent Supervisor Ralph Angelo on the ballot for the general election. In Gorham, Councilman Frederick Lightfoote turned  back challe challenges nges from fell fellow  ow   board  boar d member  Allyson  Allys on Adam Ander son, who  will run in November on the Conservative Party line, and challenger Dale Lightfoote Stell in a three way Republ ican primar y to replace longtime Supervisor Richard Calabrese. Calabrese earlier in the year opted against running for re-election after serving as supervisor for 14  years. Lightfoote said he was thrilled at the result and is looking for ward to the general election in November. “I’m humbled and honored at the amount of support shown for me today,” Lightfoote said. “On we go for November.” In Hopewell, Margaret “Peg”

Hilton turned back a challenge from town Councilman Mark  Sheppard in a  two-way Republican primary to replace Supervisor Mary Green. Green, who also Hilton this year decided

not to run again, is completing her 12th year in office.” Hilton said she was excited about the win because she knew  it would be a close race. “I felt the community wanted a choice,” said Hilton, who will spend the next three months talking with and listening to residents about their concerns. Ralph Angelo, Angelo  who is seeki ng his third term in office, defeated challenger Lynn Emmerling by  a comfortable margin. Dan Marshall, who has served as South Bristol supervisor since 2000, was leading challenger Barbara Welch by 11 votes after the polls closed Tuesday night. He said absentee ballots would have to be counted. “I would say the race is too close to call,” Marshall said.  Welch agreed, and praised residents for coming out to the polls.
