The uncontested election for two trustees and Village Justice in Babylon Village in March didn’t exactly result in a wave of voters heading to the polls. Poll watchers were on hand throughout the day, however, to help voters cast ballots, respond to questions and get through the day. The hardest part, they said: trying to stay awake!

Shown in photo as the polls closed at Babylon Village Hall were Margaret Lonergan, Margaret Mehrer, Elizabeth Karoly, Joseph Palma, Alison Carley, Linda Canonico, Brian Flood, Josephine Jedrlinic, Marie Greer, Doris Richter, Walter Walsh, Eugene Turner, Kim Cudnik, Patrick McGinnis, Barbara Nilsen and Matt Vogel.
