    I am very happy for Ruthanne, and I think she will be an excellent Mayor for the City of Newton as it faces the difficult fiscal challenges ahead.

    Scott Lennon and his team also deserve the gratitude and respect of our community for running a hard fought campaign that truly came down to the wire. This was a close election, but we were fortunate that either candidate would have been a good Mayor of our city.
