Bhuptani wins Livingston council primary by 11 votes (Updated)

Livingston Deputy Mayor Ketan Bhuptani has won the Democratic primary, defeating Laurie Kahn by 18 votes, with all vote-by-mail and provisional ballots included in the final tally.

Bhuptani won 1,768 to 1,750 for the third township council seat in a six-candidate field in last week’s primary election.

Kahn said she will not seek a recount.

“This is not a mandate, it’s a message,” Kahn told the New Jersey Globe. “The people want change.”
