Peter C. Bylone received 1,241 votes. Mike Rivera picked up 1,065. Republican Gary Levari finished third with 919 votes, and GOP challenger Bob Smith tallied 768 votes.
Bylone and Rivera campaigned on a platform of continuing the work they started. They specifically want to address township roads and infrastructure.
Rivera said he hopes to pave 100 percent of township roads. He also vowed to try to hold the line on township taxes.
"We have one of the lowest tax rates in the county," Rivera said. "God knows people don't want to spend more on taxes."
Bylone also is happy to continue the team's work.
"The others are excellent candidates," Bylone added. "It feels good knowing ... you can move forward in what you started and be progressive."
