Democratic Councilman Joseph Cicalese and running mate Cristina Fowler will defeat Republican Councilman James Eufemia in Hightstown, the New Jersey Globe projects.
Fowler is in first place with 1,432 votes. Cicalese has 1,298, more than twice Eufemia’s 619.
The victory means there are no Republican elected officials remaining in Mercer County.
The final tally won’t be known for days. Mail-in ballots postmarked by election day will be counted so long as they reach election officials by Nov. 10.
Provisional ballots, which are expected to favor Republicans, won’t be counted until Nov. 11, and voters who submit deficient ballots have until Nov. 18 to cure them.
