There was a tie vote on Tuesday in the Bradford Town Highway Superintendent’s race between Ryan Andrews and Rodney Hoad, as both of them got 108 votes. Steuben County Election Commissioner Vicky Olin says, the county election board has to wait and see if there are any affidavits for Bradford. Olin says, if it is still a tie vote when we certify the election, it is called a failure to elect. At that point, according to Olin, the New Town Board in January will appoint someone as the Highway Superintendent for the year. The board does not have to appoint either of the candidates that were on the ballot. Then the highway superintendent position would go back on the ballot again next year.
