Boca and Delray Election Results & Ruminations
Shelly Petrolia was on Tuesday’s ballot.
She won. Barely.
He won. Big.
Petrolia and Singer, the mayors of Delray Beach and Boca Raton involved themselves in this year’s elections to an unusually high degree for these cities. Each was seeking to create a like-minded voting bloc.
Petrolia began her effort last year. She helped to defeat a well-financed, well-known incumbent, Bill Bathurst, and replace him with Juli Casale. In the last year, Casale has been a Petrolia loyalist on everything from firing the city manager to ignoring science on sea grape trimming.
BOCA RATON Voters returned two incumbents to the Boca Raton City Council by comfortable margins Tuesday night.
In the Seat C contest, Yvette Drucker bested Constance Scott and two other candidates. She got a bit more than 50 percent of the vote, with all precincts reporting.
Drucker was appointed over 31 other candidates in October to fill the remainder of Jeremy Rodgers’ term after he went overseas on a military deployment.
Drucker is a longtime community volunteer who has served on the boards of organizations such as the Boca Raton Children’s Museum and the Boca Raton Historical Society. She also was chair of the Boca Raton Education Task Force. She stressed in her campaign her ability to work collaboratively with other council members.

19 municipalities in Palm Beach County held elections on Tuesday and we have the results.
One of the biggest headlines coming off of the elections is that three longtime incumbents in Lake Worth Beach have lost to challengers.
They include three-term Mayor Pam Triolo, who was defeated by one-time city attorney Betty Resch.
In District 1, Sarah Malega beat incumbent Commissioner Scott Maxwell and incumbent Andy Amoroso fell to challenger Kim Stokes in District 3.
Triolo, Maxwell and Amoroso had all been in office nearly ten years and the other candidates in those races made term limits a big part of the discussions.
