On Tuesday evening, January 7, voters gathered for Bedford’s annual Town Caucus chaired by Selectman Emily Mitchell.  For each position, those who have already formally declared their candidacy as well as candidates who used the Caucus to announce their interest were nominated.

Voters then determined which two candidates for each position would secure the designation of “Caucus Nominee.”   As a caucus nominee, candidates are automatically placed on the ballot for the March 14 Town Election.

The following is a list of all nominations for each position with the Caucus nominees identified.
