Hull won a decisive victory with, nearly double the votes of his opponent Jennifer Duczkowski. I didn t choose to run, Hull said. People came to me and asked me, with their concerns. This will not be the Leonard Hull Show. This will be the people s show. They will set the agenda. My political agenda will be the people s agenda.
Hull, a retired high school history teacher and former Dighton School Committee member, became the town s new selectman with a total of 688 votes versus 363 votes for Duczkowski in Saturday s annual town election.
Meanwhile, Goulart, who was retiring from the Board of Selectmen this year because of her husband s death of COVID-19, won a write-in contest for a seat on the Board of Assessors.
