A year of change in New Castle and Lawrence County
The past year saw small and big shifts. Mayor Anthony Mastrangelo won re election amid no tax increases and a projected super cleanup. County changes included Republican Robert Del Signore winning a commissioner seat while Democrat Rick DeBlasio sought a second term. Redistricting placed New Castle in Rep. Mike Kelly's district, while southern Lawrence County joins a two Democrat incumbents contest in April. City voters may adapt to the new political map and leadership.
