The town of Somerset will likely head to the polls in a Special Election to fill a third Board of Selectman Seat that was vacated by Holly MacNamara, who resigned earlier this month,

Somerset Town Clerk Delores Bence outlined how the process would work, as contenders will be able to take out nomination packets as soon as the coming week, and begin the process of signatures to be certified in advance of the Special Election. 

The winner would then have the option of running for a full two-year term in 2022.
