Congratulations to all three winners. But I have a concern. 7 poll sites with only 10% of registered voters voted (normal). So, why were the schools closed? This was only a primary. This town has enough locations to support a primary. There truly was no need to close schools. Did the other towns in RI close cancel school?

Would love to know how much this one day, 7 poll site with all the workers cost the Town.

Jim McGaw

A lifelong Portsmouth resident, Jim graduated from Portsmouth High School in 1982 and earned a journalism degree from the University of Rhode Island in 1986. He's worked two different stints at East Bay Newspapers, for a total of 18 years with the company so far. When not running all over town bringing you the news from Portsmouth, Jim listens to lots and lots and lots of music, watches obscure silent films from the '20s and usually has three books going at once. He also loves to cook crazy New Orleans dishes for his wife of 25 years, Michelle, and their two sons, Jake and Max.
