Medford Township’s Council will remain the same in 2014 as Jeffrey Beenstock, James Pace and Chuck Watson were all re-elected on Tuesday.
The Burlington County Board of Election’s unofficial results had the three Republicans defeating their Democratic opponents, Becca Gutwirth, Brett Blyshak and George Youngkin. The win by Beenstock, Pace and Watson will keep the Council entirely Republican for at least another year.
