Mostly incumbents won: Ward 6 alderman Rebekah Gewirtz, Ward 5 School Committee member Mark Niedergang, and all four Aldermen-at-Large. Gewirtz and Niedergang won by huge margins. At-large challenger Luis Morales made a good try, but he was unable to overcome the overall boringness of this election.

One non-boring election result: challenger Christine Rafal beat incumbent James Norton (editor of the Somerville News) for the Ward 4 School Committee seat.

Unofficial results, on the city website

The lack of action did allow me to describe the scene at the Dante Club (http://www.boston.com/yourtown/news/somerville/2009/11/post_7.html). Which hopefully gives readers some idea of the political scene.

Also, hi Tom—good to meet you.
