    Voters in Boothbay Harbor have re-elected Wendy Wolf to the three-year selectman's seat and chosen Tricia Warren for the two-year selectman's seat.

    A total of 310 voters turned out for the election. Wolf won with 222 votes to Rendle Jones' 73. Warren won with 121 votes, Linc Sample received 75, Palmer Payne 54, and Chris Haskell 50.

    They have also chosen Steven Lorrain for CSD Trustee, Stephanie Hawke for CSD School Committee, James Stormont for Sewer District Trustee, Kenneth Marston as Water District Trustee, at-large, and John Arsenault as Cemetery District Trustee (all of these candidates ran unopposed).

    “I am delighted and really humbled by the confidence the voters put in me,” Wolf said. “I will do my best to continue to be a good public servant.”

    At the Boathouse Bistro, the news resulted in massive cheers as Warren was on duty election night.

    “I am...wow...very excited,” Warren said. “Thank you to everyone who came out and voted.”

    “I never had any doubt she would win,” co-worker Jill Reynolds said as a regular customer insisted on buying Warren a drink.

    Town meeting will take place tomorrow at 9 a.m. where the selectmen will be sworn into their positions.
