Lakewood Re-Elects Mayor and Vice Mayor in Light Vote

Incumbents Lakewood Mayor Mark Hannaford and Vice Mayor Charles Schweitzer won re-election in a low turnout, with 6,170 of 35,485 registered voters casting ballots. Final figures show Hannaford 5,338 and Schweitzer 4,798, while challengers Donald Plunkett and William Moulton trailed. The campaign focused on Lakewood’s 20 year general plan and the city’s contract with the sheriff's department, known as the Lakewood plan, amid talks of cost increases and potential rebates. Schweitzer emphasized community relations and a full-time outreach role. Hannaford stressed maintaining the plan and quality of life.
