Mr. Roth, a landfill manager and father of four, ran a campaign. He canvassed voters, handed out yard signs and marched in the town’s parade in August. Mr. Green, an auto body technician whose household includes six children, chose not to campaign, trusting that voters would remember his stances from a previous run.

Good. If you care so little you aren’t going to even vote for yourself, you don’t deserve to hold elected officer.

Dude just tried to coast into office. Sad. Also it said there was a primary, but ballotpedia said it was a nonpartisan election?
