Wilton registrars of voters released unofficial vote tallies in yesterday’s primary election. More Democrats (1,054 or 29.97%) turned out to the primary polls than did Republicans (951 or 23.39%). Wilton Democrats also overwhelmingly voted for Ned Lamont, the party’s new nominee to run for governor; Wilton Republicans, however, supported David Stemerman, someone other than Bob Stefanowski, the candidate who ultimately won his party’s nod–in a surprise over the GOP-endorsed Mark Boughton.
