Cushing Wins

The fourth attempt at running for Marion's highest office finally paid off for Stephen M. Cushing, who handily defeated former Selectman Joseph P. Zora Sr. to fill the three-year seat on the board vacated by Andrew Jeffrey. Here Mr. Cushing breathes a sigh of relief after learning the results at the polls and would soon thereafter be sworn into office by Town Clerk Ray Pickles. (Photo by Kenneth J. Souza).
