Milford 2021 Election Results: School Committee, Moderator, More

MILFORD, MA — The officials results in the 2021 Milford town election are in, showing who won each race on the ballot in the April 6 contest.

In the School Committee race — the most crowded with five candidates up for three seats — incumbents Meghan Hornberger and Christopher Wilson will and challenger Matthew Zacchilli take the open seat. In the open Town Moderator race, Michelangelo Bon Tempo is Milford new Town Meeting leader.

The town also now officially has a new Select Board member, with former health officer Paul Mazzuchelli taking William Kingkade's seat. Mazzuchelli did not face an opponent in 2021.

According to the Town Clerk, 2,115 Milford voters cast a ballot in Tuesday's election, which is about 12 percent turnout. That's far less than the 2020 election, when 34 percent of voters cast a ballot. Milford Precinct 5 had the highest turnout at 396 voters, or 14 percent of the total.
