MOUNT DESERT — Martha Dudman was re-elected to a three-year term on the Board of Selectmen in voting here Monday.
She outpolled Stephanie Reece 181-123.
School Committee member Heather Jones, who ran unopposed, was re-elected to a three-year term with 230 votes.
Three people who did not file for election but ran as write-in candidates for an open seat on the School Committee received votes: Kate Chaplin, 73, Tracy Miller, 70, and Keith Johnston, 41.
That result means that Chaplin will serve a one-year term, with the seat being up for election again next May.
Chaplin also received eight write-in votes for one of Mount Desert’s seats on the MDI High School Trustees Board. She has accepted that post as well, and will serve a one-year term.
Tony Smith was re-elected to a three-year term as a high school trustee.
Mount Desert’s open floor town meeting will be held tonight, May 8, starting at 6 p.m. in the elementary school gym.
UPDATE: An earlier version of this story contained preliminary results. When official vote counts were released Tuesday, Miller and Johnston’s vote counts had changed slightly.
