Voters also shot down an amendment to the Town Charter that would have made the Town Clerk's job an appointed rather than an elected position.

Voters decided to keep the post an elected position by a vote of 893-to-551.

In other races, Christian Pope won a seat on the Dartmouth Board of Health, defeating Darci Moran. And Kevin Estes won a 5-year seat on the Planning Board, besting Jane Pansire.
