[ Updated: Final results below.] After weeks of rhetoric and tough talk about spending in the local school district, the fate of local spending on education has been decided by voters. The polls closed at 9 p.m. With the Lakewood, NJ, school budget continuously ballooning over the past few years, Township voters were given the opportunity to make their voices heard in today’s school board election and they did.
Voting results are as follows:
In the race for three three-year terms:
Yechezkel Seitler – 3,898
Issac Zlatkin – 3,931
Carl Fink – 4,540
Morris Wilder – 1,535
Tracey Tift* – 1,786
Yisrael Friedman – 707
In today’s elections, there were four seats on the ballot, rather than the usual three. One person ran for the one-year unexpired term and five ran for the three full terms on the school board.
In the race for the unexpired one-year term:
Ada Gonzalez* – 3,859
The total votes cast were 16,505

Are you sure this is from all the districts? I cannot believe only 538 people voted in the entire Lakewood. This is probably from 1 or 2 districts. Stay tuned for further results.
there were 538 total votes cast! I voted for 4 people. Assuming everyony who voted picked 4 names, that means only 137 people showed up!!!!!!!!!!
This is not the total results and those are not the winners. That is the results from ONE POLLING STATION!!!!
