ORLAND TOWNSHIP, IL — With unofficial vote totals in, it looks as if Orland Township Supervisor Paul O'Grady and his slate of candidates will defeat candidate Scott Kaspar and his slate in the consolidated election. With all 75 precincts counted for, the Orland Township Together Party, backed by O'Grady, is projected to win the election. O'Grady received 69.06 percent (10,711) of the vote, while Kaspar received 30.94 percent (4,799). Incumbent Orland Township Clerk Cindy Murray and Assessor Richard Kelly ran unopposed. The projected winners in the trustee race thus far include the Orland Township Together slate. For trustee, incumbents Patrick Feldner, John Lynch, Maria Sanfilippo, along with candidate Michael Maratea appear to be taking the lead. The Orland Residents for Responsible Government slate — which includes candidates Andrea Bowles, William Keefer, Lora Kreczmer and Joseph Solek — backed by Kaspar is losing thus far. For Highway Commissioner, Antonio Rubino, Orland Township Trustee, is facing off against incumbent Brian Younker, who ran as a write-in candidate. As of Tuesday night, Rubino's results are the only ones shared in the race for Highway Commissioner. Sign up for newsletters and breaking news updates and follow us on Facebook.
