BUCKINGHAM TOWNSHIP, PA ? Buckingham Township voters have elected a Democrat to its three member board of supervisors.

Democrat Mike Bateman on Tuesday defeated two-term incumbent Republican Paul Calderaio to win a six-year seat on the board of supervisors, it was announced by State Senator Steve Santarsiero, who is also the leader of the Bucks County Democratic Party.

?Two years ago, we were celebrating some great victories all over Bucks County. This was one race we lost and the candidate was there that night and it was hard to be in a room of screaming Democrats as the guy who came up short," said Santasiero. "That night, he told me he would be running again. And he did. And he ran a great campaign.

?I would now like to introduce supervisor-elect and the first Democrat to be on the Buckingham Township Board of Supervisors, Mike Bateman," said Santarsiero, who was attending an Election night event.

With every Buckingham precinct reporting, here are the numbers in the race:

• Mike Bateman (D) ? 5,244
• Paul Calderaio (R) ? 4,544

?Over the last three years, I spent countless days getting to know my neighbors, building new relationships, and understanding the true needs of our community," said Bateman. "So many people contributed to and supported my platform and focused on what Buckingham is going to look like in 2026 and beyond."

He added, "Thank you to all the people from every corner of Buckingham who came out and voted for me. I look forward to seeing everything we can accomplish together in the next six years.?

In January, Bateman will join Maggie Rash and Jon Forest on the three-member board of supervisors.
