Sylvan Caucus Was Packed

A Total of 553 Voters at the Caucus

Democrats Were Numerous and Judson Won Over Glazier

The biggest caucus in the history of the county was held in Sylvan Monday when Bacon beat Riemenschneider by a vote of 320 to 233. The big caucus was the result of the Judson-Glazier fight and Judson won. The total vote was 553 which is, of course, much larger than the total republican vote in Sylvan. The vote last fall was Durand 341, Bliss 325, a total of 666, or only 103 larger than the republican caucus vote this year. This gives some idea of the way in which the Sylvan caucus was run. A supporter of Judson says each side had in about an equal number of democrats. A democrat states that there must have been at least 200 democrats in the caucus. Judson is jubilant. He claims to have won all along the line and to be stronger than ever in Washtenaw politics.
